DECLARATION
Rule 4 of the Racing Rules of Sailing states: “The responsibility for a boat’s decision to participate in a race or to continue racing is hers alone”
Sailing is by its nature an unpredictable sport and therefore inherently involves an element of risk. By taking part in the event and signing below, each competitor agrees and acknowledges that:
  • They are aware of the inherent element of risk involved in the sport and accept responsibility for the exposure of themselves, their crew and their boat to such inherent risk whilst taking part in the event;
  • They are responsible for the safety of themselves, their crew, their boat and their other property whether afloat or ashore;
  • They accept responsibility for any injury, damage or loss to the extent caused by their own actions or omissions;
  • Their boat is in good order, equipped to sail in the event and they are fit to participate;
  • The provision of a race management team, patrol boats and other officials and volunteers by the event organiser does not relieve them of their own responsibilities;
  • The provision of patrol boat cover is limited to such assistance, particularly in extreme weather conditions, as can be practically provided in the circumstances.
Signing below also confirms that each competitor agrees & acknowledges that they shall comply with the "Check, Clean & Dry Procedures" attached.
Signed / (Helm) / (Crew 1) / (Crew 2) / Date
If this form is submitted by email you will be required to sign the document at regatta registration.

ATTACHMENT

Check, Clean & Dry Procedure for visiting RIBs, dinghies & cruisers.

In order to comply with Anglian Water's byelaws for Rutland Water all visiting boats must comply with the CHECK, CLEAN & DRY procedure BEFORE ARRIVING AT Rutland Sailing Club.

Check / Check your equipment and clothing for living organisms. Pay particular attention to areas that are damp or hard to inspect.
Clean / Clean and wash all equipment, footwear and clothes thoroughly, use hot water where possible. If you do come across any organisms, leave them at the water body where you found them. (Cleaning & washing must be done away from Rutland Water when visiting the Club)
Dry / Dry all equipment and clothing – some species can live for many days in moist conditions. Make sure you don’t transfer water elsewhere.

Visiting boats will be randomly checked on arrival and if found to be in a condition that causes concern, will not be allowed to be brought on site. All sailors & rib drivers will be expected to sign a statement to confirm that they have Checked, Cleaned and Dried their boats before arriving at RSC. This will be normally included with the race entry form or the rib registration form that must be signed before racing starts.

Additional Information

RIBs: Any RIBs that have flooding hulls are not allowed to be brought to the club. Engines should be flushed out with hot water before they are brought to Rutland water.

Launching Trollies/Trailers: should not be left in the water for any longer than is necessary to launch & recover the boat
