Watergate bay near Newquay is the venue for Heat 14, the final heat of the Zapcat racing season. Saturday's heat also sees the final of the King of the Surf championships. There are two divisions and 6 teams line up for each heat. At the end of the day there is a final for each division. From a shore start the Zapcats head out over the surf, turning at a bouy to run parallel to the shore, turing again to head inshore before a final turn running parallel to shore again, but this time closer to the beach. There are five laps in each heat. If a boat looses it's pilot, co-pilot or both the race is stopped and then restarted after the Zapcat has been recovered. Red flags stop the race as the Zapcat and crew are recovered. These are images from the days heats.	<<- September 2009 ->> 3 September Allied Air Salute Plymouth 3 September Allied Air Salute Red Arrows - Plymouth 4 September Pentewan 5 September European Open Surfboat Championships Tolcarne, Newquay 5 September European Open Surfboat Championships Breaking the surf 5 September European Open Surfboat Championships Surf back to shore 5 September European Open Surfboat Championships Run to the flag 25 September Zapcat racing Watergate bay Heat 13 26 September Zapcat racing Watergate bay Heat 14 26 September Zapcat racing Watergate bay Heat 14 - Division 2 finals 26 September Zapcat racing Watergate bay Heat 14 - Division 1 finals 26 September Zapcat racing Watergate bay Presentations
