It depends.

Class rule C.5.4(b) and (c) control when a boat can be cleaned by a person entering the water

In a regatta of 3 days or less, a boat cannot be cleaned by a person entering the water except to remove weed.

During a regatta longer than 3 days, a boat may be cleaned by a person entering the water (with or without breathing apparatus) on the 4th and every even day thereafter (day 4, 6 and 8 etc).
