Let's hope it doesn't get debated in the media, mind, would ease the pressure on Boris and Dom.

The LTA have written to the DCMS today to seek clarification of exactly this.

Informal  Racing.

I don't think Shustoke are doing any harm. But what they have professed to be doing is not in my view in the spirit of the regulations until 1st June.

But by attracting new members to join them to take part I think they could cause themselves problems and in the long run everybody if the wheels come off. I know they are operating a limit to the number of people on site, so if I was them I wouldn't be accepting new members - except possibly Dominic Cummings.

Nick - can you share where you got that about about only playing a sport with one other person? Specifically you refer to the regulations. For me that means the legislation- I don’t recall reading that in the Act.

So I’ll answer my own question. From 1 Jun the situation changes and you can exercise or play sport in groups of up to six people (if you can social distance).

See para 1.5:

We've not had the legislation for the 1st of June on wards yet. But we've been told it's up to 6 people in England (no limit on number of households). How this will be worded is yet to be seen (by me at least).

Since the 13th of May its been permissible to exercise with up to one other person from another household. And you've been able to meet up socially with one other person from another household, but must be in a public place.

Legally in England there is no 2m law. Although 2m is still in Government guidance. So, two people sailing together from different households aren't breaking the law.

I know of certain sailors who are looking to join the club just for the racing  Unhappy

you can't blame them for stealing the march on this.... travelling to events is going to take a hit, dinghy sailing in general probably is.  Given the ageing demographic in dinghy sailing and Dougal's cliff edge fast approaching, it's probably a case for survival of the fittest (and least risk averse).

Whoever at that club thought that publishing a report and results was a good idea has done none of us any favours

This is the sort of thing that may raise questions

Keep a low profile and be sensible
