Default Doubts on Films/setup

Hi,

There might be a chace to take some pictures of a boat regatta. I would be
in the boat that leats the fleet. Which film is recommended? The weather
should be a clear sky.

I'll be using a 300 zoom lens, I though on using a ISO 800 film on speed
priority set to 1/1000s. Does anyone have experience that can share.

Thanks in advance.

I would think that you would like saturated colors, bright sunny day
exposure is usually f/16 at a shutter speed equal to the film speed. so if
you choose a 160 film then you could still shoot at f/5.6, I assume you will
be focused on infinity so depth wouldn't be an issue, in fact could enhance
an image with one boat standing out sharp between blurry others.
