The course itself is divided into sections or spaces numbered from 1 to 83 inclusive, the connection on the return is taken up at space 63. The outside course is only to be used in case of a tie.

The course: The yachts start at square 1 and proceed along the course and around the lightship following spaces as they are listed reaching space 88 and then passing to space 63 to go back on the home stretch returning to space 11 which is located between buoy 15 and the Flagship boat which is the finish line.
