Changes to the by-law Section 4 covering Boatshed and Outside Storage
The General Committee has approved changes to the by-law Section 4 covering Boatshed and Outside Storage. The changes relate to:
– Use of the Sailor App instead of cards to sign on and off for races, which feeds in to the storage points calculation
– SUP storage allocation process
– Ability for a member to store one SUP within that members allocated boat storage spot
– Storage of A-class catamaran beach wheels on the boat unless used for ground level storage, and removal of rudders from A-class in their storage spots when practical.
– Approval required for storage of a boat on the floor in the general area, for a maximum of one week
– Potential penalties in the event of a breach of any storage by-law will include a 5 point storage penalty, or removal of the offending boat/equipment to the outside storage area pending resolution
– Other minor changes

Attached is a copy of the Duty Roster up to the end of December 2022. Please check the roster and make a note of the days which you have been rostered on.
If you are unable to attend your rostered day, then it is your responsibility to arrange a swap, and notify the following people. The earlier the swap can be arranged, the better.

You can use the Sailor App to see all members who have been rostered on. This is located within the ‘Member’s Only – Duty Roster’ section of the Sailor App.
You also have the ability to contact a member via this section to help with arranging a duty swap.
Sailor App
We will once again be using the Sailor App to manage the racing operations of the club. This includes, the Sign On and Sign Off procedure. It will be the same as in previous years.
For our new members, then please read the attached document for how to setup and register the Sailor App on your phone. You will need to do this before you can Sign On for your first race.
If you have any trouble or questions with the Sailor App, then please let Paul (pdstamp84@tpg.com.au) know.
