Due to a traffic accident that occurred on the bridge crossing Lake Hartwell and near Green Pond landing the Saturday takeoff is delayed.
Tournament director Trip Weldon announced that all competitor boats remaining on the bridge have been turned around by first responders and will launch at Portman Marina. They will idle across the lake and join the boats already lined up at Green Pond Landing.
The new takeoff time is tentatively 7:15 a.m. ET.
