Richard Brown National Programmes Director Yachting New Zealand

“Right from the start Regatta manager struck us as being a great tool for New Zealand clubs for whom organising a major regatta can be a daunting task. Regatta manager will handle many of the tedious tasks involved in setting up and managing the process. In addition sailors will find enormous advantages in that once they have established their “Passport” they will only ever have to register their passport number to enter a regatta being run under Regatta manager.”

Ron Soka General Chairman 2006 Mills Trophy Race

"The Mills Trophy Race has a history of making changes that have great value to the sailors while maintaining our legacy as one of the premier sailing events on the Great Lakes. We chose Regatta manager because it provides benefits for the sailors, automates and streamlines our registration process, builds a great communication network for both sailors and Mills Committee, and puts the Mills on the leading edge using this innovative package.

This year we celebrate the 99th Anniversary Edition of the first Mills Race in 1907, and wanted to get Regatta manager in place as we build up for the 100th next year. Because of the logistics of planning an event starting in Toledo and finishing at Put-in-Bay, there are over 50 committee people and volunteers required to make it happen. We think Regatta manager will help us address the event communication gaps so that nothing "falls through the cracks."

George Brengle NOOD Regatta Executive Director

"The addition of Regatta Manager to the entry process for the Lands' End NOOD Regatta series is a natural fit. We will now be able to provide our participants with a more efficient system, enabling them to submit entries on line to a secure site. Regatta Manager will also assist our staff and streamline our in-house management systems for all our NOODs. We chose Regatta Manager as it has a proven track record in the field and we know it works and works well."

Buck Downs Chairman, Bermuda Ocean Race

"We are very excited to have Grog and Gruel Provisioning again as or Title Sponsor as well as a new regatta management system provided by Regatta manager. Regatta manager will facilitate our entry and race management process. We believe that this program will move our past, labor-intensive race management process fully into the computer age -from the front end entry to the final finish line results."

S. Carter Gowrie President of Gowrie, Barden & Brett

“This partnership compliments the insurance products we offer to our yacht club clients and takes it one step further to facilitate the complexities of managing regattas. Regatta manager is a great fit for our clients.”

Chris Hubbard Regatta Chairman City Island Yacht Club

"In evaluating our Club's entire Regatta program, we quickly realized that Regatta manager would allow us to be much more efficient, draw more boats to our events, and manage our events better. From ease of submitting entries (and accepting payment online) to staying in contact with participants to accurately handling scoring, this program has it all. Any regatta committee would be nuts not to try it!"

Tom Abel Commodore North Flathead Yacht Club

"We decided to try Regatta manager because it allowed our competitors to sign up on-line anytime before our regatta. We also learned from the program what others are doing and we now have some ideas to improve our regattas."

Ron Ogilvy Royal Vancouver Yacht Club VIc-Maui Trustee

"We anticipate this system making it easier for skippers to submit the detailed information required for an international offshore yacht race. We also see it improving the communication and sharing of information between the two host clubs."

Craig Reynolds Rear Commodore Balboa Yacht Club

"Recommended by Balboa Yacht Club Member Alan Andrews - World renowned yacht designer is why we chose you! That and the system seems very user friendly to make it easier for Boat owners to enter the race."

Cynthia Parthemos Race Committee Larchmont Yacht Club

"If we can electronically couple the competitor input with race registration and results we anticipate a enormous reduction in time spent on paper work while accommodating a 100% increase in participants. We’re sure competitors will enthusiastically embrace this as a single log-in will allow them to enter multiple regattas while simplifying crew logistics."
