If a boat breaks this rule and is identified, she shall be disqualified without a hearing but not if the race is restarted or re-sailed or postponed or abandoned before the starting signal.

CHANGE TO THE NEXT LEG OF THE COURSE 13.1 To change the next leg of the course, the Race Committee will lay a new mark (or move the finish line) and remove the original mark as soon as practicable. When in a subsequent change, a new mark is replaced, it will be replaced by an original mark. 13.2 Boats shall pass between the Race Committee Boat, signaling the change of the next leg and the nearby mark, leaving the mark to port and the Race Committee Boat to starboard.

PENALTY SYSTEM RRS 44.1 and 44.2 are changed so that only one turn, including one tack and one gybe, is required, except the two (2) turns penalty will apply within three (3) boat lengths of a rounding mark. A boat that has taken a penalty or retired under RRS 44.1 shall complete an infringement acknowledgment form within the protest time limit. 16. TIME LIMITS 16.1 Short Race Format (a) Target time for each race is forty (40) minutes. (b) The first boat must finish within seventy five (75) minutes of the start of the race, failure to do so will result in the race being abandoned. (c) Only boats finishing within thirty (30) minutes of the first boat finishing will be scored as finishers. All other boats will be scored Did Not Finish. This changes RRS 35. (d) If no boat has rounded mark number one (1) in a thirty (30) minute period after the start, the race will be abandoned. 16.2 Long Race Format (e) Target time for each race is ninety (90) minutes.

  • An Ambivalent Ground: Re-Placing Australian Literature
    An Ambivalent Ground: Re-placing Australian Literature James Paull A Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of New South Wales 2007 PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: PAULL First name: JAMES Other name/s: CAMPBELL Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: English, Media and Performing Arts Faculty: Arts Title: An Ambivalent Ground: Re-placing Australian Literature Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Narratives of place have always been crucial to the construction of Australian identity. The obsession with identity in Australia betrays longstanding uncertainty. It is not difficult to interpret in this uncertainty a replaying of the deeper insecurities surrounding the settler community's legal and more broadly cultural claims to the land. Such insecurities are typically understood negatively. In contrast, this thesis accepts the uncertainty of identity as an activating principle, appropriate to any interpretation of the narratives and themes that inform what it means to be Australian. Fundamental to this uncertainty is a provisionality in the post-colonial experience of place that is papered over by misleadingly coherent spatial narratives that stem from the imperial inheritance of Australian mythology. Place is a model for the tension between the coherence of mythic narratives and the actual rhizomic formlessness of daily life. Place is the ‘ground’ of that life, but an ambivalent ground. An Ambivalent Ground approaches postcolonial Australia as a densely woven text. In this text, stories that describe the founding of a nation are enveloped by other stories, not so well known, that work to transform those more familiar narratives.

The kids have had FUN and it is always a tremendous sight to see them learn and grow in confidence. We had a range of abilities from front of the fleet regatta sailors through to club sailors still learning to confidently sail in all weathers and everything in between. The Flying 11 Program has been ably coached by Evan Andrews and assisted by a hard- working and enthusiastic parent group. Club Championship The Club Championship was a close tussle between Rebecca Hancock/Eve Peel and Jack Taylor/Shuhei Tomishima with Rebecca and Eve proving the form sailors of the season. The club Championship places were 1st Rebecca Hancock and Eve Peel, 2nd Jack Taylor and Shuhei Tomishima and 3rd Kashi Saunders and Bezi Saunders.

  • Portsmouth Number List 2016
    Portsmouth Number List 2016 The RYA Portsmouth Yardstick Scheme is provided to enable clubs to allow boats of different classes to race against each other fairly. The RYA actively encourages clubs to adjust handicaps where classes are either under or over performing compared to the number being used. The Portsmouth Yardstick list combines the Portsmouth numbers with class configuration and the total number of races returned to the RYA in the annual return. This additional data has been provided to help clubs achieve the stated aims of the Portsmouth Yardstick system and make adjustments to Portsmouth Numbers where necessary. Clubs using the PN list should be aware that the list is based on the typical performance of each boat across a variety of clubs and locations. Experimental numbers are based on fewer returns and are to be used as a guide for clubs to allocate as a starting number before reviewing and adjusting where necessary. The list of experimental Portsmouth Numbers will be periodically reviewed by the RYA and is based on data received from the PY Online website (www.pys.org.uk). Users of the PY scheme are reminded that all Portsmouth Numbers published by the RYA should be regarded as a guide only. The RYA list is not definitive and clubs should adjust where necessary.

  • 29Er COACHING MANUAL
    29er COACHING MANUAL International 29er Class Association Introduction The focus of this manual is as a quick reference for your 29er rig setup and sailing in various con- ditions including coaching tips and exercises, described in words, photos and video clips. It is split into several sections – Rigging for Light, Medium and Heavy Winds, Training Exercises, Planning for a Major Regatta, Comments on Coaching, Care & Maintenance of the 29er. As each section is completed it will be added to the www.29er.org webpage under the Technical Sec- tion. We would welcome feedback regarding the information, whether it is easy to understand or more description and photos are required. Any specific conditions that you have at your home club would be fun to hear about and perhaps we can help you if you write to us ([email protected]) and describe the situations that you may be having difficulty with. We are committed to making this manual as current as possible and have enlisted the advice of many of the class champions over the past 2 years. If you have a technique that works and would like to share it with us, please send it in and we’ll put it up with your name and home club. In the Rigging for Light, Medium and Heavy Winds section, we are assuming that you have already rigged your boat. If you are unsure about how to do this, there is a 29er Rigging Manual already posted to the bethwaite.com website. Going Sailing and What to Wear The most important thing to think about before you hit the water is your clothing.
