It is not really clear yet how many boats and crews have entered as their is no online registered listing but the training race of yesterday showed the following fleet sizes.

Taipan 4.9 solo (cat rigged ) : 25 boats
Taipan 4.9 double (sloop rigged) : 16 boats

Taipan 5.7 : 3 boats
Capricorn F18 ; 4 boats

It is very much possible that we'll see more teams have entered as yesterday was the last day of arrival and measurements. So not all may have participated in the training.
