We need to be in the marshalling area 1/2 hour before each race.
Loading the boat is back to front or front to back, be quick and safe.
We need to get into our assigned lane on time and in a relaxed manner.
No talking in the boat. We hope to do a warm up start on the way to the start line.
Need everyone focused to move the boat into the ideal position in the lane.
A starter person will direct the start.
