HRYC Forum

The HRYC would like to organize an 8 week fall series starting 08.12.2020, and ending on 09.30.2020. Please remember we are using the RRS, however, there will be no protests, and NO COLLISIONS. And above all stay safe and have fun.

Each skipper is 100% responsible for the safety of their crew and the safe operation of their boat.

Guidelines:
Crews from outside the household must maintain 6’ safe social distance at all times.
No crew with any symptoms in previous 2 weeks
Up to 26 footers – Max of 3 crew
Over 26 foot and up to 31 foot – Max of 4 crew
Over 31 foot and up to 36 foot – Max of 5 crew
Crews are encouraged to wear PFD’s
Crews are encouraged to wear face masks
It is recommended that boats are sanitized pre and post race. Methods for sanitizing include washing with biodegradable soap and water.
NO gatherings on the docks post racing.
Skippers must keep a record of crew members aboard each race

Format:
There will be no RC on station until further notice. Instead, there will be an assigned RC Boat that will have a horn and run the following sequence: 5 min blast, 4 min blast 1 min blast, START.
Second place boat from previous week will be the RC boat.
All boats are required to carry a VHF and monitor 72.
First boat to finish must remain on station and take finish times (highly suggest carrying paper and pencil if you plan on going fast)

Start time:
18:10 - JAM 5min sequence. This is for jib and main only, course to be announced the day of.
18:25 - Flying Sails 5min sequence. This is for flying sails, course to be announced the day of.

Again, Each skipper is 100% responsible for the safety of their crew and the safe operaon of their boat. If you are uncomfortable with bringing outside crew, then don’t. If you are uncomfortable with flying a kite with shortened crew, then don’t. If it is too windy for your comfort level, then don’t go race.

Hi All,

I would like to organize a race for next Wednesday night (as there is not official race scheduled) August 5th. Pursuit start, slowest boat departs 6:00pm. I will post the course and starting time on the official notice board/electrical box by 5:30pm day of the race.

Nice racing last night. Great race Tyler and congrats to True North for the series win.

Cheers,

Erik

Hi All,

To address Lar's Question. To keep it simple lets just stick with the Wednesday night rules from the summer series. So the regular crew limits, as per Scott's Covid Race series.

Slowest boat will depart at 6:00pm Port start.

Let me know if you have questions.

Erik
