SAFETY AND HANDICAPS
There are two pieces of paperwork that you need to complete before you set sail in the PIC Insurance Brokers Coastal Classic.
SAFETY
The Coastal is defined by Yachting NZ as a Category 3 event. This means you need to get a Cat 3 safety certificate issued by Yachting NZ. These require an insepction, cost $121 for club members and are valid for two years.
HANDICAPS
As the Coastal is a mixed fleet race, we use handicaps to calculate time based results. If you have a keelboat, you’ll need a PHRF handicap certificate from Yachting NZ, which costs $75 for a new application and is valid for a year. Multihulls can request a handicap from the NZMYC.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
The race is open to all sailing yachts that meet the relevant safety critera.
Divisions will be developed once entries have been received and will be announced in the sailing instructions to ensure close competition
RACE DOCUMENTS
The Notice of Race, Sailing Instructions, and any amendments lay out the rules for the event. Please read the NOR before entering.
HANDICAPS
Handicaps will be provided by the Harbour Classic Organising Committee based on the modified Race Track system.
