I'll be there, but I'm sure we'll be kept a long way from the course.

Website says show will take place between Rencen and Belle isle, so that will probably be the hold off points.

Probably better just to watch from shore. On the water probably won't see much. I know at the OSS races out there, we're held about a mile from the course and you can't really see much.
