Expectation heading into the opening day of racing are high. After several days and strong, consistent breeze with a swell that’s the talk of the boat park, the forecast for Tuesday’s action is strong.

Closer to the shore, the breeze will be shifty and weak but will be much more stable and stronger offshore.
