The start is in the water offshore of the Goffstown Recreation Center. Thefre will be three waves. The course is somewhat triangular in shape. Swimmers will head east roughly following the shore line, always keeping the course marker buoys to the left. At the powerlines, swimmers will turn 90˚ at the buoy and head north to the next buoy and then turn 90˚ left again for a straight-line return to the start. At the final buoy turn left 90˚ and exit the water crossing the timing sensor. Safety Kayaks will monitor swimmers from the interior of the triangle, and outside of the return leg.
