First Time Guide — Part 3

Courses
 

Course Diagrams for The Bay Regatta will be available for download prior to the event. A laminated set of coures diagrams will be issued at registration.

Courses are designed each day taking into account the weather forecast, tidal streams, and speed of each class of boat.

Courses are broadcast prior to the warning signal via VHF and displayed on course boards during your sequence.

If you have registered your mobile phone details with us, your course details may also be sent via text to mobile phones. Registration of your mobile phone must be done in advance via the entry form or let us know by the Thursday prior to the start of the week. If you lose your phone or need to change numbers for any reason then you will need to let us know the evening before a new number is to be used

Retirement

If you retire from a race for any reason, please let us know either by calling on VHF 77 or by phoning the Regatta Centre on 081 894 0280.
