The last three months of the year are pretty important in the world of sport. A large number of companies make decisions about where to allocate marketing budget for the following year during this time and increasingly, the calendar – including markets visited plays a big part in the decision making process. The idea of international annual tours or series for sailing is relatively new. This means that creating calendar consistency is difficult. In 2009, the the RC44 Championship visited Puerto Calero, Sardinia, Italy at Lake Garda, Lake Traunsee in Austria and Dubai. In 2010 it was Dubai, Austria, Copenhagen and Puerto Calero.
