i can see why the "come back later if we have any left" thing... no telling who will actually show at a regatta, and you don't want to overstock SWAG.
Too bad no one seems to want to pre-register online (or even worse, pre-pay for a regatta). I suspect that doing so would solve a lot of issues for the PRO (events, sponsorship, meals, swag, support boats, budget, etc)
best strategy for online pre-reg, free swag / cheaper price... works every time
Also, just wanted to thank you again Rick, amazing event that we try to do almost every year, all criticism is to help improve the event, not knock it.
