Course

The stage scheme takes the participating boats through various Zeeland and Flemisch waterways. As the boats are relatively small and fragile, the organisation has chosen to stick to inland waterways and the “Veerse Meer”.

The intended race scheme is as follows:

Monday 15 June:	Technical inspection and sailing tests (“Jachthaven Oostwatering”, “Veerse Meer”)
Tuesday 16 June:	Prologue (10 km) on the ”Veerse Meer”, sprint test and emergency stop.
Wednesday 17 June:	Stage “Veerse Meer” (25 and 45 km)
Thursday 18 June:	Stage Ghent- Terneuzen (32 km)
Friday 19 June:	Stage “Goese Sas”, “Goese Meer”, inland port Goes (15 km)
Saturday 20 June:	Stage Veere, “Kanaal door Walcheren”, Arne (15 km), finish with sprints (280 m) in the inland port of Middelburg

The course of navigation for each stage is given below.
