What’s a Nav Rally?
It is NOT a race! The challenge is to traverse the course at a constant nominated speed and pass each mark as close to the predicted time as possible. Penalty points are assigned if you are early or late passing each mark. The winner is the boat with the least penalty points. It’s easy, fun, competitive and will improve your navigation related skills.
It's also called Time Trialling. Click to watch this very interesting video from South of Perth Yacht Club.
How it Works
Skippers will be assigned a Start Time and emailed a personalized Predicted Log form showing your predicted time of day you should pass each mark based on your planned constant speed, and your assigned start time.
