[email protected] website: exe-sailing-club.org Sailing Instructions - Dinghy Racing Document History Reviewed and approved by the Exe Sailing Club (ESC) Sailing Committee. Updated: 27/03/2018 (Version 1.11 – Anne Way) These Sailing Instructions apply to all dinghy races run by Exe Sailing Club unless event specific Sailing Instructions are produced. Document governance The Dinghy Committee reviews and where necessary updates the club Dinghy Sailing Instructions annually to reflect the implementation of the current Racing Rules of Sailing, the RYA Arbitration process and any local variation of these in our club racing. The Dinghy Committee shall then submit the updated Sailing Instructions to the Sailing Committee to be approved before the start of the racing season. For avoidance of any doubt the Race Committee and the Sailing Committee are deemed to be the same body. Please notify the Sailing Committee of any errors or omissions you find in either copy of the Sailing Instructions. This is best done via email to the Chair of the Sailing Committee.
