Wow

It seems like you have a lot of events that go back to back and as many as three a month.

How does that work for you guys? (Do you have a way to create sailing time?)

We are being ruthless with the schedule on the Chesapeake... to the point that when a club screwed up and moved their date well after the schedule had been set in stone we had to tell them to cancel the start for this year. The new date would have created Back to Back events and would have resulted in two low attendance regattas and a tougher sell for both events next season.

We look carefully at the high point standings and see how many events a team is doing from year to year. 4 or 5 weekends is a lot of racing for most teams. This is about one a month for our sailing season. Adding more events does not get them to do more racing. It certainly gives them choice in how to plan their weekends.

How do you guys see it?
