1.   When you arrive at Bellport Dock, Regatta Personnel will direct you to a location where you may temporarily park for 30 minutes to unload your Opti. (Empty trailers will be stored on the grass, east of the dock entrance for the duration of the regatta.   See Bellport Village Map for location of ‘all day’ car parking.)

2.   Opti storage locations are assigned by the order of registration.   Your registration number will be included in your registration confirmation and your registration packet.  Use the Park/Launch Area Map to locate your assigned spot and place your Opti there.

3.  Check in at the “Check-in /Registration Table” at the south end of the tent.

4.  Fully rig your Opti and stand by it until Regatta Personnel have completed a safety check of your boat and equipment.  (Note: Some locations are under trees, which will prevent you from hoisting your sail.  In this case, wait for Regatta Personnel to direct you to an alternate location for your safety check, before hoisting your sail)

Safety/Coach boats

People bringing safety/coach boats may launch them free of charge at the Village Boat Ramp on the east side of the dock. Follow the instructions of the Dockmaster or Regatta Personnel.   Empty trailers will be stored on the grass east of the dock entrance for the duration of the regatta.   Dockage for these boats must be arranged at the time of   registration.  All safety/coach boats without prearranged dockage must anchor out or be tied perpendicular to the main dock using bow/stern anchors.
