OD and Rescue Boat Duties
Club members will be allocated OD (Officer of the Day) duties during the season. Other duties include helping with working parties and training. These are not allocated, but help is still needed to spread the load of making the club function.
You will find the current OD Roster here. A reminder email will be sent to rostered members a few days before their duty.
Any person who is unable to attend for his/her duty must find another member to act as a substitute. If you fail to attend or provide a substitute, you will lose your best result in that sailing series.
Note:
- A duty crew will normally consist of four people.
- Each nominated person completing OD / rescue duty shall receive points equivalent to second place for series races. A helm shall only count one OD points awarded to qualify in any series. A substitute OD receives the same points. In the rare case of an OD competing in a special event, he/she will receive points equal to the average of as many of his/her best results less one required to count to qualify in the event.
The following notes are for guidance and do not form part of the sailing instructions.
