Club Racing -- Keelboats

Should a Sailing Event be cancelled, HYC will attempt to reschedule to another date. An entrant may seek full refund by writing to Howth Yacht Club's Sailing Committee in respect of their inability to accept the rescheduled date.
For online payment of any entry fee, the minimum age policy is regulated by the minimum age required to own a credit card - this is 18 years of age.

OK

I declare that:

I will comply with the Racing Rules of Sailing, ISA Prescriptions, IRC Rules, Class Rules where relevant and the Club’s Sailing Regulations.

Identification of Risks

I am fully aware and conscious of the actual and potential risks involved in active water sports, including drowning, hypothermia and other physical injuries.

I accept that, by engaging in active water sports, my physical safety and that of my crew could be endangered. I am also aware that other competitor's actions, and the actions or inactions of the organisers of water sports events, including the drivers of escort craft, could also endanger my physical safety.    

Acknowledgement of Risk

I acknowledge that it is up to me personally to assess whether any event or activity on the water is too difficult for me. I acknowledge that the safety of my boat and her entire management including insurance is my sole responsibility and I am satisfied the boat and crew are adequate to face the conditions that may arise in the course of the races.

Insurance

I confirm that my boat carries adequate valid third party liability insurance cover.
