I hereby certify that I am the owner of the yacht entering this race and that she qualifies for the US Sailing Safety Equipment Standard for "Nearshore" sailing. I understand that it is my responsibility to inform the crew of the risks of sailboat racing, to make sure they understand and accept those risks, to decide whether the crew is competent and adequate for the event, and to decide whether to start or continue in a race. I represent to race organizers that my yacht has liability insurance of at least $500,000 USD per event in effect for this race and that the insurance covers property damage, personal injury and death and that the policy covers yacht racing activities and allows for ‘permissive use’ if the skipper other than the owner will be in charge. I acknowledge that the decision to enter my yacht and to participate in this race is solely my own and that I assume all of the liability for that decision. I further agree to be bound by the International Yacht Racing Rules as adopted by US Sailing, including national prescriptions, except as modified by the Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions for this event. To the furthest extent permitted by law, I agree to not hold the race organizers (Orcas Island Yacht Club, organizing authority, race committee, protest committee, sponsors, OIYC Board member, or any other organization, officer, or official) responsible for personal injury or property damage myself or my crew may incur or inflict associated with my participation in this event and related activities, regardless of the cause or circumstance.
Registration fees are non-refundable unless the event is cancelled.
I agree to these terms: yes no
