Shipraces are open to any captain or ship owner who wishes to join the event. Once the shiprace has started, crews move their vessels onto any of the starting line locations to begin the race. Competitors then proceed through each leg of the event, each trying to pass through all the markers before their opponents. After each section is complete captains continue on towards the finish line. The race ends when everyone has been notified that the last ship has reached the finish line.

The courses in a shiprace are as follows:

Course 1 - 5 legs
This course starts/ends about 145 east and 85 south of Tasur'ke with a general southwestern flow between Ulangi and the mainland, around Ulangi, and back.
Course 2 - 11 legs
