Sailing Instructions and other information for RS Northern Championship
The RS 400, RS 200, RS Feva and RS Aero Northern Championships 2021 at Carrickfergus Sailing Club are nearly upon us.
Sailing Instructions are now available on the website at https://www.carrickfergussc.org/racing/racing-2021/rs-northern-championship/
We would be grateful if you could make yourselves aware of the Covid Restrictions and Guidance that are in place https://www.carrickfergussc.org/covid-19/
It would also help us with regard to registration and results if you could verify that your helm and crew names are listed correctly on the list of entries as there are a few cases where it appears the name entered at the initial stage of the entry may have been incorrectly used as the helm name https://www.carrickfergussc.org/racing/racing-2021/rs-northern-championship/entry-list/
If you think there are others that are not on the entry list but are planning on attending the event could you remind them that they need to enter today as entry closes at midnight, and entries will not be taken on the day.
See you all at the weekend
