SKIPPERS BRIEFING FOR SAIL-PAST
DRESSING BOATS To enhance the atmosphere of Opening Day, boat owners are asked to "dress" their boats with flags and other bunting on the morning of Opening Day. A prize will be offered to the best dressed boat in the marina and also the best dressed crew during the Sail-Past. SUNSET DECK - 1000 Skippers of dinghies, yachts and power boats are requested to attend a briefing on the Sunset Deck. The briefing will cover positioning of VIP craft, the assembly area for participating boats and the order of the Sail-Past for the official salute. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS All vessels participating in the FSC Opening Day must comply with current safety requirements, please see Department of Transport website http://www.transport.wa.gov.au/imarine/safetyequipment.asp for further information. SAIL-PAST - 1200 Details of Sail-Past are weather dependant and will be provided at the briefing on the Sunset Deck at 1000. The following is a guide if the weather is as we hope it will be. Please attend the briefing! 1. At the conclusion of the ceremony declaring the opening of the season, vessels are
requested to depart the marina in the order of power boats, yachts and dinghies.
2. Please assemble in the areas shown on the map. 3. When the signal is heard each Section will proceed behind the Section lead boats (lead
boats will be announced at the Skipper's briefing and will display large Club Sectional Flags). Under the direction of the Harbour Master in an inflatable, the order of Sail-Past will be:-
1. Yachts - Inshore/Offshore – “Success”, with first-in-line Siska Winner ‘Giddy Up’ 2. Power boats - “Crystal Quartz” (Graeme Allen) 3. Dinghies - "Max Shean"
4. The Harbour Master will be on standby to direct lead boats. Radio communications will be on VHF Channel 72. All skippers should observe radio watch and unless absolutely necessary maintain radio silence.
5. Dinghies should follow the Dinghy Start Boat after the Sail-Past to the dinghy racing area at
South Beach for the afternoon race.
6. Racing Yachts should proceed to the start area in the vicinity of FSC Mark 'L’ or ‘Y’ (as indicated at the briefing) in preparation for the race start.
7. Cruising Yachts will start from Beagle Rock ISO Marker and use Cruising JaM Course # 2. Please help to make Opening Day 2018 a memorable event by dressing your boat and taking part in the Sail-Past!
