Track Information
The Eindhovens Kanaal is 13 kms long and 20 metres in width. Its width provides just enough space for a Coxed Eight to turn. Passing other boats is possible but requires due care.
The north side of the Eindhovens Kanaal is marked by hectometre signs marked on short, greycoloured posts. A few of them are no longer there, but this will not cause any problems for the competition.
The competition starts at the hectometre sign numbered 60 (“Paaltje 60”), marked START. The track will show signs for 2000 metres (at hectometre sign numbered 80) and 4000 metres (at hectometre sign numbered 100). The Finish is at hectometre sign 120 ( “Paaltje 120”), and will be marked clearly.
There is a bicycling track for coaches and supporters alongside the Eindhovens Kanaal.
