Just report every one ! Set up a pro-forma on the PC and print of 100 copies at the start of the day
Venue Date Time Nature of incident (delete as applicable) capsize/mark hit/collision/etc... and send them on.... Run a decent training weeken I think you might generate 1000 if you try hard enough......

well done the rya for givin the gov a rap for bypassin them "The RYA’s view on the Regulations is that they will not contribute towards safety but will merely place an unnecessary and unjustified burden on the boater." |

i personly think we should go along with the rules and report each capsize and other incident just to annoy them and see how long it takes for this rule to be reversed for small boats!!!

Scooby_Simon I do not think you can call it a 'decent training weekend' if you have 1000 incidents!!! Jon |

What a load of governmental *rse. I spoke to RYA a couple of months ago re this and was told an "under" had changed into an intended "over" (or vice versa )when referring to vessel at lenght 30 m this mistake in wording led to the inclusion of all "boats" I hope whoever did this gets a firm kick up the bahooky for wasting time and tax payers money . But untill it's resolved : Is the act inforce now ? How do we report ? Who do we report to? Are they even going to tell us ? or just start collecting fines and impounding boats for non payment . I phoned the MCA (Maritime Coastguard Agency) regarding this for clarification today.
Gues what ? they're on strike and not answering phones !!!! I expect at the deluge of work they will get if the act is enforced to the letter !

Dis-agree... 100 boats - so that's 100 capsize practices short tight course racing, how many marks will get touched ? ditto (MINOR) collissions - espically if there is little wind....

Yep sounds ridiculous but ... ... a friend who knows about such things told me the following. Since this is an MSC resolution it should only apply to vessels which fall under their jurisdiction, i.e. the so-called "convention vessels". Amateur sailing boats don't fall in this category and so aren't subject to the rules. ~jc |
