On the day of the event, participants can find all the necessary information regarding registration details and the race schedule. Rolling and mass starts are organised for all three races, promoting a fair and enjoyable competition. It is essential for participants to bring their own caps, and prizes are awarded to winners based on different age groups and overall performances.

To facilitate easy transportation for individuals coming from the Northern Beaches, the club provides the Manly Express Ferry. This convenient transportation option ensures that participants have a seamless and hassle-free experience throughout the day.

Besides the thrilling races and exceptional facilities, there are additional activities that offer participants more reasons to get excited.

As part of the memorable experience, the club takes pride in providing swimmers with a special finishers towel.
