Regatta Communications

It’s a two way thing -

• The regatta organisers need to provide competitors with news and instructions. 
• Competitors may want advice and clarification from the organisers.

Communications from the Organisers

Official Notice Board

This is the place for key documents such as the Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions.

It’s a virtual noticeboard accessible via the regatta website or directly at https://sailevent.net/noticeboard/zl

Notices to Competitors

Official updates that may be issued before or during the event. They are published on the ONB and promulgated to competitors by text and email.

Flags

Flown from the Race Box or on the race course. They have a lot going for them – visible, unambiguous, available to all. But you need to know what they mean. See the Know Your Flags, Know your Colours blog post here for a full explanation.

The UNofficial Notice Board

A WhatsApp group where regatta organisers post snippets of news to keep you in touch. Sign up via the ONB.

Push Notifications

Subscribe via the ONB to have significant things pinged to your phone. 

Communications from Competitors

It’s good to talk so if you have a question, need to report something or file a protest do pop up to the Race Management Office. It’s up the stairs behind the Race Box. Open on Sunday afternoon then daily from about 2 hours before the first start until well after racing has finished.

But sometimes digital communication is more convenient. You have available on the ONB:

• Protest forms
• Results query forms

Finally there’s a Contact Us form on the Regatta Information menu on the event website or simply email chrw@sailevent.net
