All swimmers MUST ATTEND a pre-race safety briefing and sign a waiver prior to racing.

Wetsuits are allowed but swimmers will ONLY be eligible for draw prizes. Swimmers who wear a wetsuit will not be eligible for any Island Swim awards but WILL be eligible for Fitness Challenge points based on a prorated finish time that compensates for the advantage the wetsuit provides.

Bright swim caps are mandatory. Swim buoys or safety floats are welcome and strongly recommended during the race for better visibility.
