Preparing for a regatta - what you need to know before you start
Have you decided that the time has come to take part in a regatta? Then you need to prepare accordingly. Start by choosing an event and then familiarise yourself with its rules and regulations. It's well worth your time to do this to avoid misunderstandings and hassles later on. The rules define exactly who is allowed to take part in the regatta and what their rights and responsibilities are. This is useful knowledge. Be sure to check the technical condition of your boat. Make sure the sails, rigging and engine are in full working order. If anything raises your concerns, get professional support. Safety is a key issue that must not be neglected. It is better to check something a few times than to expose yourself to problems once you have sailed. Regatta is not only about speed, but also about strategy. It is a good idea to practice manoeuvres, course changes and quick reactions to weather conditions beforehand. Do this and you won't regret it. Don't forget that you must have a safety waistcoat. Read the forecast a few days before the regatta so you know what to expect. This way you won't be caught off guard by possible rain and spoil your mood. Comprehensive and proper preparation is the key to success and a rewarding competition.
