Start
Plemont
Parking can be hard at both ends. Long carry down steps at start and tight getting past cafe.
Plemont beach covered at high water. Swell can be powerful on launch, dumping beach, few safe exits.
Hard paddle out into wind and you need to get out far enough to clear headland.
Finish
Bouley Bay
Tricky reef off headland at finish. Strong tidal flow so get timing right.
Run Length
15 km
Shuttle Length
30 km
Weather & more
Westerly wind, starting off low water or an hour after. Good run when it works
