Registration is grouped by Crew within your Ship. Divide your ship into Crews of 3 to 5 scouts. Your unit leaders are registered as their own Crew. You will decide the sailing style of each crew, Traditional/Competitive or Sail to “Know Where” so we can make arrangements for your boats. We will make every effort to have a “Competitive Boat” for each crew pre-registered. Please remember that your crews will be assigned boats based on the crew size you give us and it may not be possible to change crews around.
