The Naviculatio season is built around particular [[Naviculatio#Regattas|regattas]], [[Naviculatio#Ocean races|ocean races]], [[Naviculatio#Galas|galas]], and [[Naviculatio#Scenes|scenes]]. No one attends all of them, typically people pick those that are closest to them or in places that would like to visit that year. Some are limited in the size and number of yachts they can accommodate so slip rental prices skyrocket in each scene as the season focuses on them.

The season kicks off on January 18th with the Devča Circuit on [[Sacard Beach]]. The Devča Circuit is a week-long set of races, beginning with inshore races and climaxing with the primary race - a 243 nautical mile (450 km) circuit. Because it is the start of the season, there is a welcome gala called the "Castra Osanavio Yacht Club Amuse-Bouche" and a parade of the new yachts called "the Debutante". The [[Sacard Beach]] scene continues throughout January and ends on the first weekend of February with the "Off To the Races" ball. From there the yachts race across the straits to [[Venceia]] in the "Homage Run". After the Homage Run there are a series of regattas over the next three weeks for the various sizes and classes of boats (Venceia 20 meter-sail, Veneceia 20 meter-motor, Veneceia 30 meter-sail, etc.). This is punctuated with the "Royal Reception", wherein one of the royal family hosts a gala for the Naviculatio-set. At the end of the regattas there is "Windlass Ball" to end the season in Veneceia and indicated that things are winding up. Then follows the Crown Prince's Cup an professional open ocean race from Veneceia to the island of [[Coribus]]. The Coribus scene starts with the of the Crown Prince's Cup Gala celebrating the winner of the cup. There are a series of regattas for the local smaller yachts and dinghy races for the dinghies of the mega yachts that make the trip. The scene in Coribus is much more relaxed than that on the mainland and some people will fly to Coribus for the scene without their boats. In April, typically synching up with the "Spring Break" in many [[Caphiria]]n schools, colleges, and universities, the season continues in [[Parita]] for the "Family Regatta" were families crew their yachts in a series of competitions both on the water and parties designed around competitive activities. The Family Regatta runs for three weeks to capture all of the schedules with a gala each Friday night to crown the winners of the various races and competitions of the week, as well as the overall winning family of the week.

In May the season moves to [[Sabon]] with the "Race to Summer" from [[Parita]] to [[Sabon]]. Due to Sabon's smaller size it has become one of the more exclusive scenes in the season and its galas are even more extravagant as a result. Only the ultra-rich attend and the Sabon Regatta features some of the most customized and highly engineered sailing yachts in the world. There is also the "Whirlybird Gala" named as such because most people who arrive to it come by helicopter from their superyachts.

In June the season moves to Pasiche for the Summer Solstice circuit. Since it is the start of summer break from school, the Pasiche is geared more towards families. There are regattas for smaller craft, the Cionnaith Lagans Yacht Rock Music Festival, celebrating the work of the [[Faneria]]n yacht rocker Cionnaith Lagans. In late July the scene moves to Baco for the Caphirian Cup, a race around '''THE BIG ISLAND IN THE NORTH'''. While the race is on-going the Baco Regatta is occuring locally as well as the Yachting Club of Baco's Gala and Ball. Due to the heat at this part of the summer, most of the events are hosted on the water. Baco is known for its floating bars and party rafts that meander through the mooring fields picking up partygoers, who never know when they might return to their own yacht. Because of this Baco's scene is known to be particularly social and there are many unorganized races between people who have only recently met. The Baco scene concludes with the "Big Sweat Ball". The season pauses in August and September due to the high occurrence of tropical cyclones and also because its the start of the fiscal year and many people have to focus on getting their companies set on the new fiscal year's strategy. In October season picks back up again in Castra Jansoro.

In October season picks back up again in [[Castra Jansoro]]. The Castra Jansoro Regatta is a very technical race that is known for attracting the base sailors in the world to compete. The [[Castra Jansoro]] is known for being particularly international. It is also more open than the others, with the focus being on yacht racing fans instead of yacht owners. As such the [[Castra Jansoro]] scene is based mostly on land and is much more "pedestrian" compared to the other locales. It coincides with the Castra Jansoro Boat Show and often times the yacht owners will allow small numbers of people come onboard and see their yachts. In November, the season concludes back in [[Veneceia]] with a series of regattas and each of the yacht clubs in the city hosting each other in a "thanksgiving" for a good season.
