Wave Order

Please Note: If you are uncertain about which class you belong in, Please first read the boat specs info on the NFCT website. If you still need help, email [email protected]. We would prefer to handle boat class questions in advance and not in Old Forge! Each boat class has its own sponsor, please note yours and say thank you!
