I hear sailors complaining that when the heat is on in a race they sometimes have trouble remembering if they are on port or starboard. I have an easy cure for the problem. I have a 3 ft. strip of green tape on the right side of my boom and an orange strip on the left side. The tape is always in view and it keeps me aware of the tack I'm on. I hope the helps.
