Media restrictions relaxed for Telstra Sydney to Hobart

by Peter Campbell on 22 Dec 2000

Following in an extract from a notice to the Media, which confirms that the Media Restrictions, detailed in the Sailing instructions have been modified.

'While media regulations have been relaxed to allow media to speak freely to skippers, crew members must still apply to conduct media dealings. If you wish to speak to crew, please be aware that they must complete and submit an application form to the Media Director. These forms are available from the Information Centre at the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia. '
