No driven mechanical props and/or rubber bands etc permitted for propulsion assistance. |
The recommended control is a maximum of 2 light fishing lines attached to the aft (rear) of the catamaran. Suggested minimum length is 60 metres on a spool. Such lines may be restricted or cannot be used when more than 5 boats are racing at the same time, so tangling of the lines is avoided. |
