What equipment do I need?

• If you just want paper printouts and nothing on the Internet, all you need is a computer running HAL's Race Results and a printer.
• If you are calculating the results ashore, remotely from the race officer's team, you need a reliable communications link next to the computer.
• It is good to have paper of different colours for different types of print out. For instance, provisional results on pink paper, validated results on pale green paper and other notices, such as boat lists, on white paper.
• If you want to put your results onto the Internet, and very few events don't these days, then you need an Internet connection, either on the same computer as you use for the initial results, or some other computer with HAL's Race Results installed.
• You can transport the results to the internet-connected computer by making an archive file (Sailing Administrator / Maintenance / Archive) and then restoring it on the other computer.
