Arrival:

Drive to DYC where you will be welcomed by DYC Beach Crew.   You will be asked to unhook your dinghy trailer and walk it to the boat park which is on the grassy area next to DYC called the Wharf. Please keep you dinghy trolley on top of its trailer in the boat park.   Please let me know at [email protected] if you are going to be using a double stacker because this will need to be moved to a secure compound off site with help from the Beach Crew.  Then you will need to park your car in the pay and display car park next to DYC.

Registration:

Wed 8 July at DYC 1300-1700hrs
Thurs 9 July at DYC 0900-1200hrs

Please note that you will be given two Volvo stickers to stick on your either side of your dinghy hull as close to the bow as possible.   The Volvo logo has changed very slightly so you will need to remove the 2014 sticker and put on a new one.

Noticeboard: Any changes or additions to race and event details will be posted on the Galley noticeboard

Changing rooms: You will need a 20p coin to make the shower run

Launching and Recovery:

You will launch and recover your boat from the beach next to DYC using the lifeboat concrete slip to get onto the beach.  An area of beach adjuacent to the slip will be fenced off for the RS300 and RS Vareos so you are not dodging sandcastles and picnic blankets.  After you have gone afloat the Beach Crew will arrange your trolleys in your fleet specific beach trolley parks so as to make recovery faster.
