2 ORGANISING AUTHORITYThe Organising Authority is Sandringham Yacht Club Inc. A 11997
3 RULESThe races will be governed by the Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS) of the International
Sailing Federation/World Sailing and the Prescriptions and Special Regulations (SR)
of Yachting Australia/Australian Sailing (YA / AS).
Boats shall comply with the requirements of the state Victorian legislation and local
authorities, particularly with respect to the avoidance of commercial shipping.
Between the hours of sunset and sunrise, the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea (IRPCS) shall replace the rules of RRS Part 2.
RRS Rule 55 is changed to the extent that ‘trash’ does not include biodegradable
materials such as wool, cotton, etc when used to ‘set’ a spinnaker.
4 SAFETY REQUIREMENTSa Safety Categories
The safety category applicable to each race in accordance with SR Part 1 Section
2 is specified in the Notice of Race (NoR).
b Safety Compliance DeclarationA valid Safety Compliance Declaration (SCD) shall be submitted in respect of each
competing boat. The SCD is valid for up to 13 months and expires on 31 October
each year. The SCD certifies that the boat meets the required safety category, that
it will be maintained in that condition for the duration of the SCD period, and that
any change to the level of compliance will be notified to the Race Committee.
Where the NoR requires a boat to lodge a Man Overboard Compliance
Declaration and that boat’s declaration (Crew Register and Man Overboard
Declaration) has not been submitted or has expired, then that boat will be subject
to protest by the Race Committee.

device such as a light, during the hours of darkness, in strong winds and at all
other times when it is deemed prudent.

protruding outboard.

18 THE START continuedIn the event of failure of the lights, flag signals described for a boat start may be used.
Start signal information may also be broadcast on the working VHF frequency at
the Race Officer’s discretion.
A boat that does not start within 4 minutes of her starting signal will be scored
DNS without a hearing. This changes RRS A4 and A5.

boats shall sign on at the Race Committee Boat by hailing their sail number and
having the hail acknowledged. To sign on, boats should approach the stern of
the Race Committee Boat on starboard tack. Boats not signing on may be scored
DNC without a hearing. This changes RRS Rule 63.1.
To alert boats that a race or sequence of races will begin soon, an orange flag may
be displayed with one sound signal five minutes before a warning signal is made.
Races will be started in accordance with RRS Rule 26 with the warning signal

18 THE START continuedc Race Control Tower Starts – Pursuit Races
In the event of failure of the lights, boats shall start at the time in minutes
indicated by their allocated handicap, relative to the scheduled time for the race
start. This changes RRS Rule 26.
After the warning signal, boats proceeding to the pre-start side of the line shall
not cross the start line from the course side to the pre-start side.
Start signal information may also be broadcast on the working VHF frequency.
After the warning signal, if any part of a boat’s hull, crew or equipment crosses
from the pre-start to the course side of the starting line:
• during the minute before her starting signal/starting time, five minutes will be
added to her elapsed time.
• more than one minute before her starting signal/starting time she shall, be
scored DNS without a hearing.
This changes RRS Rules 30 and 63.1.
19 START LINEa Race Control Tower Starts
The start line will be between the sighting indicator in the Race Control Tower
and mark SYC 4.
b Boat StartsThe start line shall be between a staff displaying an orange flag on the Race

A crowding mark may be laid adjacent the Race Committee Boat. When laid,
boats shall not sail between the crowding mark and the Race Committee Boat.
20 CHANGE OF COURSE AFTER THE STARTa Club Courses
Courses around fixed marks will not be altered but may be shortened.
b Laid CoursesCourses may be changed in accordance with RRS Rule 33 and SI Cl16a.
When in a subsequent change of course the new mark is replaced, it will be

Courses may be shortened at the club start/finish line by displaying flag or

RRS Race Signals.
22 FINISH LINEa Race Control Tower
The finish line will be between the sighting indicator on the Race Control Tower
and mark SYC 4.
b Race Committee BoatThe finish line will be between a staff displaying a blue flag on the Race
Committee Boat and a finishing mark.
23 BOATS RETIRING / NOT FINISHING – SIGN OFF REQUIREMENTBoats that retire and/or do not finish shall inform the Race Committee at the
first reasonable opportunity, either by radio on VHF 77 (or other designated race
frequency), telephone or in person. Boats shall make every effort to inform the Race
Committee before the expiration of the time limit for the race.
24 TIME LIMITThe time limit for races will be as set out in the following table. If one boat finishes
within the specified time limit, it will be extended by the amount specified. Boats
that do not finish within the time limit, or the extended time limit if applicable, will
be scored DNF. This changes RRS Rule 35.
Time limits for other races will be notified in the relevant NoRs.

At the expiry of the time limit, the Race Officer may advise on the working VHF
Channel that no boat in a division has finished within the time limit.
12 | Sailing Instructions 2016 - 2020
25 AVOIDANCE OF COMMERCIAL SHIPPINGMarine regulations require that boats shall avoid commercial shipping. Boats which find
themselves in danger of interfering with commercial shipping may use their engine to
avoid interference and will not be penalised under RRS Rule 42 provided that:
a it is used only as necessary to avoid the commercial shipping in question,
b no advantage is gained through its use and
c a declaration containing a complete description of the circumstances is
submitted to the Race Committee within the protest time limit.
This changes RRS Rule 42.
26 SCORINGThe scoring system will be as specified in the NoR for each race or series.
27 RADIO COMMUNICATIONSAll boats shall carry a VHF radio, and maintain a listening watch on VHF 77,
unless otherwise advised, and on standby for distress on VHF 16. The call sign of
Sandringham Yacht Club Tower is ‘Sandringham Tower’. For boat starts, the call sign
for Race Control will be the name of the race control vessel.
28 MEDIATIONAt the discretion of the Protest Committee, a mediation hearing may be heard prior
to a protest hearing involving an alleged breach of a rule of RRS Part 2. After the
written protest form is properly lodged, one representative from each boat shall
meet with the mediator and no witnesses will be allowed.
Protests not resolved by mediation will be heard by the Protest Committee.
A boat that accepts fault at a mediation hearing will be penalized by having her race
score increased by 25% of the difference between the boat’s finishing score and the
score for DSQ in her division or class, rounded up to the next whole number.
All other boats’ scores will remain the same. Once accepted, this decision is not
subject to reopening or appeal. This changes RRS Rules 63, 64.1 and appendix A.
The mediator may be a member of any subsequent Protest Committee or may
observe and give evidence to a Protest Committee. This changes RRS Rule 63.3(a).
29 PENALTY SYSTEMRRS Rule 44.1 is changed so that the Two-Turns Penalty is changed to a One-Turn Penalty.
Sailing Instructions 2016 - 2020 | 13
30 PROTESTS Protest forms are available from the SYC Boating Office.
Protests shall be lodged with the Boating Office within two hours of the finishing
time of the last yacht in the last race of the day.
Where protests are lodged by email or facsimile, the protestor shall, in addition,
inform the Race Committee orally within the protest time limit that a protest has
been lodged.
Protests will be heard in approximately the order of receipt at a time to be advised.
Breaches of SI clauses 4, 12, 18, 23, 25 and 27 will not be grounds for protest by
a boat. This changes rule 60.1(a). Penalties for these breaches may be less than
disqualification if the protest committee so decides.
31 DISCLAIMERAll those taking part in races conducted by Sandringham Yacht Club Inc. do so at
their own risk and responsibility. Sandringham Yacht Club, its staff, officers and
volunteers accept no responsibility whatsoever for the seaworthiness of boats
whose entries are accepted or the sufficiency or adequacy of its equipment.
Attention is drawn to RRS Fundamental Rule 4, which states that a boat is solely
responsible for deciding whether or not to start or to continue racing.
Sandringham Yacht Club, its staff, officers and volunteers accept no responsibility
whatsoever for loss or damage to boats or equipment or personal injury or death
associated with races conducted by the Club.
