New Safety Regulations


Recommended Posts

YNZ giveth and YNZ taketh away.

 

My main interest is around what's changed to get cat 3 for the coastal:

 

Changes I've spotted

 

A securely installed watertank (No description of size, don't think this was a requirement before)

 

No more parachute flares, no more white flares (just a signalling torch)

Just red and orange smoke, no LED flares unfortunately

 

Along with the hacksaw and 10 blades, we now also SHALL carry a hammer and drift, plus whatever we need to carry to cut the mast clear

 

Echo sounder is now prescribed

 

Anything else I've missed?

Not entirely related except as an example of WTF

 

12.4 © in Part 5 Cat A - this is for trailer boats and I note in the SI for the upcoming Gulf Classic Regatta - a requirement for all TY even if they're doing the short course/are Div C. boats.

 

"Two red hand-held flares, two orange hand-held smoke torches and two parachute rockets."
 
Ummmm.  :wtf:
