SUMMARY:Rylock Summer Sea Swim Series 2024-25
DESCRIPTION:The Rylock Summer Swim Series kicks off on November 14, 2024, and takes place every Thursday evening at 6:00 PM until March 13, 2025. The swims are held from the Nelson Yacht Club ramp on Wakefield Quay in Nelson. Swimmers must check in before 5:45 PM on race night.\nAll competitors must register online no later than the night before their first swim. Online registration is straightforward and ensures you’re registered for any of the Thursday night swims. If you plan to participate in only one or a few swims, select ‘Pay at Event’ under Payment Options and bring cash on the night of your swim. Please note that we cannot guarantee on-the-night registrations! Priority will be given to those who have pre-registered. If the registration team cannot enter your details into the system before 5:45 PM, you won’t be able to swim that evening.\nThursday Night Schedule:\n\n5:00 pm Check-in opens\n5:45 pm Check-in closes sharply (no late entries or check-ins)\n5:50 pm Race briefing (all swimmers must be out of the water, on the ramp, ready for the swim, and listening carefully to the briefing)\n6:00 pm First wave starts, followed by each subsequent wave approximately 1 min. apart\n\nRace Options & Wave Starts:\n\n\n\nShort course: orange caps\nLong course (3 separate waves)\n\nWave 1: Strong swimmers (white caps)\nWave 2: Confident swimmers (green caps)\nWave 3: Recreational swimmers (red caps)\n\n\n\n\n\nEach night will feature a short and a long course. The short course will generally range from 300m to 800m, while the long course will be 1000m to 1500m. Exact distances may vary depending on conditions. Where possible, the short course will extend to longer distances in the new year.\nLess confident swimmers are encouraged to start at the rear of wave two or three. Kayakers will keep a close watch on these swimmers, who will also be monitored by a shore official at all times. Choose these options if you enjoy the company and security of the series environment but are not concerned about competition or times (though times will be recorded as a check to ensure all swimmers are accounted for).\nTimes will be adjusted to reflect the wave start, so you’ll receive your exact swim time. It’s important to verify your wave start during registration and ensure you have the correct coloured cap.\nPayment Options\nSelect one:\n\nPay Online Full Series (Non-Member): $135\n\nSelect this option to pay online as a non-member.\n\n\nPay Online Full Series (Club Member): $70\n\nMust be a Nelson Tri Member for the 2024-2025 race season.
