The 2007 Qingdao International Regatta and 2007 FIVB Beach Volleyball Women's Challenger in Beijing are being held simultaneously.

The 2007 Qingdao International Regatta has set sail on Monday. The athletes had to get their yachts measured before competing in the event.

The measurements take into consideration almost every part of the yacht. This ensures that all athletes are competing fairly.

The competition is slated to begin on Wednesday.
