Currently there are the following options for consideration.
• A 2 day event with the possibility of one day being a long distance event up river, with a social event following.
• Improve yacht berthing and car parking arrangements.
• Run 2 or more divisions to be fair to the smaller boats.
• Print a Sailing Instruction hand out for the briefing.
• Have the results available quicker at the end of the Regatta
• Make the handicap results easier to understand for competitors
