National Yacht Club Issues Call For Volunteers To Assist With Class Compliance At Flying Fifteen Worlds
The National Yacht Club has issued a call for volunteers to assist in its hosting of the Flying Fifteen World Championships from 1-13 September.
As many as 86 boats expected to enter the event, which will take place 50 years after the first Flying Fifteens came to Dublin Bay and the National Yacht Club.
That means a huge task is at hand for all vessels to be measured and inspected for class rules compliance on the weekend of Saturday 31 August and Sunday 1 September, as well as on Thursday 5 September between the pre-Worlds and Worlds.
Volunteering to get involved in this task is being touted by the National as fun way to get involved and meet all the visitors coming from as far away as Hong Kong.
No previous experience as a measurer is required as class measurers will supervise the various stations (Control Desk, Weigh Station, Spars Inspection, Sails Measurement, Safety Checks).
