The ILYA measurer will be present to assist with compliance issues. All boats built prior to model year 2007 are required to have transom drain holes by July 28, 2010 per class bylaws. The scale will be available for those desiring to be weighed, and to assist with double deck trailers.

Competitors with their stickers and seals intact will not have to be weighed but may do so optionally if they wish. Boats will also be required to have names and proper deck letters as outlined in the rules, and will be checked for this as well.
