Regatta Network Lite

 Recent events have brought significant changes to business’ everywhere, and Regatta Network is no exception.  Our costs from our hosting, security, email and SMS providers have increased to the point that we have to reconsider features offered to no-charge events. 

As you may know, in the past we’ve allowed clubs to use Regatta Network for their club level “free events,” as a learning tool to familiarize themselves with Regatta Network.  However, several clubs have been abusing this offer and running every event as a “free” regatta and collecting registration fees or "donations" directly. 

As such, effective immediately, no-charge events will automatically be shifted to Regatta Network “Lite.”

Regatta Network “Lite” will provide normal registration processing, but will not include the following: 

  • Listing on the Regatta Network calendar
  • Access to Email or SMS messaging consoles
  •  Event Websites
  •  Online Scoring
  • Online Notice Board

Registration data will be captured and can be exported to the scoring program of your choice.  The results generated can be uploaded to the results archive on Regatta Network.
