Southport Sailing Club National Junior 12 Hour Race
If you are in contact with Sea Scout Groups or Scout Groups with access to sailing facilities I would be grateful if you would give some publicity to the following on your website or in your bulletins.
The 23rd Southport Sailing Club
National Junior 12 Hour Race will take place on Saturday 28th June
2008 - 0800 hrs to 2000 hrs.
Entrants are invited from teams
sailing Bosun, Enterprise and GP14 Dinghies.
The Race is open to Sailing Clubs,
Schools, Scout Groups and other youth organisations.
Teams will race round a course of
approximately 1.5 km for the twelve hours, changing crew as
frequently as their team manager feels is appropriate.
There is no upper limit to the

four.
Team members in
an Under 20 Team must be under 20 years of age on the day of the
race. Team members in an Under 18 Team must be under eighteen on the
day of the race. There is no lower age limit.
The team manager must be
a responsible
adult, approved by the Management of the organisation entering the
team. The Team Manager must be familiar with his Organisation’s
Child Protection Policy. The Team Manager must also have a sound
knowledge of sailing, be aware of the individual capabilities of the
team members and also be capable of making appropriate decisions
regarding the safety of the team in the varying weather conditions
which may be encountered during the course of the event. A team may
bring a group of non-sailing team assistants to help in the docking
area. Team assistants may be of any age.
