Further to the update previously regarding the requirement for an IRC certificate to race in IRC class.
It has been discussed by the sailing committee and has been agreed that, in line with other clubs, pending the presentation of an IRC certificate a boat can race in the club class fleet. An IRC class boat will hold a fixed handicap of 2.0 whilst racing in the club class fleet. Upon receipt of a valid IRC certificate for the current year a boat can race in IRC class. Any points accumulated in the club class fleet cannot be transferred to the IRC class races.
A boat that starts the season in club class may continue in the club class fleet for the remainder of the season.
For any and all regattas the same principle applies.
