23rd Inshore Cock of the Rock

The annual ‘Cock of the Rock’ will be held on 2nd April. It is a favourite event that literally any boat can enter – power or sail, wooden, fibreglass, metal or concrete.

The event essentially has two rules:

1. Department of transport rules & regulations for prevention of collision at sea.

2. Finish at 3pm.

Participants nominate their own start time at any time on or before April 2nd. Categories: sail, wood, steel, ferro, power, or a combination of any, as long as it gets you to the line! The finish line itself is normally determined by about 2:50pm, to keep participants on their toes – but it will be in front of the FSC breakwater, somewhere in the area between ‘L’ and ‘F’ marks.

This year, there are two possible courses. The original course requires you to go around Phillip Rock in Thomson Bay at Rottnest and the alternative is route is to take Mewstone and the Iso 11m danger marker to starboard. The party will then kick off back at the Club at 4:00pm, with live music and a sausage sizzle. All skippers will receive a commemorative 2023 Cock of the Rock t-shirt.
