YNZ Race Regulations Cat1-Cat5; Anomalies and concerns


Recommended Posts

I see the new regs are up again. Still don't address the fundamental conflicts between OSR and the NZ regs. Still a draft by the looks of it. 

There are enough representatives at WS from NZ to get this done properly. Not quite a pass mark yet.

Yep I had a preview a few weeks back and pointed out a typo that appears to have been fixed

the 50% reef is gone

nav lights must now be wired into the central electrical system 

my main concern is that the NZTYA still controls trailer yacht regulations and nothing there has changed. Neither has there been consistency created between trailer yachts and keelboats

here are the changes

Change to:
Section 21 of the Maritime Transport Act 1994 (the MTA) requires masters of pleasure craft departing from any port in New Zealand for overseas to notify the Director of Maritime New Zealand (the Director, Maritime NZ) of their proposed voyage. The Director must be satisfied that the pleasure craft and its safety equipment and crew are adequate for the proposed voyage. A certificate of clearance from Customs is also a pre-requisite for departure under section 21.
The Director has delegated this statutory power to Yachting New Zealand. Sub-delegation from Yachting New Zealand to Yacht Inspectors mean that the Yacht Inspectors carry out these inspections to Category 1 standards.
REQUIREMENTS BEFORE DEPARTING NEW ZEALAND FOR ANY PLACE OUTSIDE NEW ZEALAND
(1) All vessels must hold a registration under a flag state. New Zealand ships register with the Registrar of Ships Maritime New Zealand
(2) Yachting New Zealand Safety Inspection certificate and the Maritime New Zealand 12409 certificate.
(3) Notify the Director of Maritime New Zealand by completing an intention to depart notification form
(4) Completed New Zealand Customs requirements. Refer to the New Zealand Customs website. www.customs.govt.nz
1.0 SHIP REGISTRATION
All vessels travelling internationally must be registered in a flag state such as with the Registrar of Ships, Maritime New Zealand www.maritimenz.govt.nz
Please note: Registration as a New Zealand ship is not the same as a Yachting New Zealand registration which is required for all vessels wishing to race in New Zealand. For more information contact Yachting New Zealand or see www.yachtingnz.org.nz
Registration as a New Zealand ship can be done either under Part A or Part B.
Both provide a ship with New Zealand nationality and protects a ship’s name for as long as it is registered.
Note: New Zealand-registered vessels are required to fly either the New Zealand state flag or the New Zealand red ensign while in the territorial waters of foreign countries.
   
2.0 SAFETY INSPECTIONS
Under Section 21 of the Maritime Transport Act 1994, a New Zealand registered pleasure craft may not leave any port in New Zealand for any place outside New Zealand unless the Director of Maritime New Zealand is satisfied that:
· the vessel and its safety equipment are adequate for the voyage;
and
· the vessel is adequately crewed for the voyage; and
· the master observes any other relevant maritime rules.
All New Zealand vessels must undergo a safety inspection prior to departure to obtain a Category 1 safety certificate. The inspection will focus on:
· the design and construction of the boat being suitable for the voyage and meeting the required standards
· the safety and communication equipment meeting specific requirements and all safety equipment being in date
· the skipper and crews ability to undertake the proposed voyage safety and demonstrate preparedness for emergency situations.
The decision on whether to grant section 21 clearance is made by the Director, or their delegate (i.e. a Yachting New Zealand Yacht Inspector).
In determining the adequacy of the vessel, the Yacht Inspector shall have regards to any previous offshore voyages undertaken by that vessel and will use the Category 1 requirements set out in part II of these regulations except in exceptional circumstances.
There may well be occasions where there are justifiable grounds for not following these Safety Regulations, but these must be carefully considered and well recorded by the Yacht Inspector and Yachting New Zealand.
A Category 1 inspection certificate is valid for one clearance only and expires at first port of call, and then reverts to a Category II for two years.
Yachting New Zealand Safety Certificates are valid from the day they are signed, for a period of 60 days from the signed date on the certificate to allow adequate time for the vessel to leave.
Skippers can apply for a 30 day extension directly to the Yachting New Zealand Safety and Technical Officer stating the reasons for requesting an extension, provided there are no changes to the vessel, its equipment or crew as originally inspected.
Beyond this timeframe, the Yachting New Zealand Safety Certificate is considered expired (invalid). During this 60 (or 90) day period, the Yachting New Zealand Safety Certificate remains valid, providing:
· There are no crew changes;
· The safety equipment on board remains in date until the estimated destination arrival date;
· No significant alternations to the vessel have been made (including the hull, rig or equipment); or · No damage has occurred to the yacht (i.e. as a result of grounding).
The following could be reasons for needing re-issue of the certificate: · Notification to Yacht Inspector only:
- Crew change

· Supply of photo(s) or other evidence to Yacht Inspector:
- safety equipment change (out of date refreshing), minor equipment change
· Re-inspection required:
- major equipment change or alteration to the yacht, or skipper change, or extending the certificate validity beyond 90 days
For information on contacting a Yacht Inspector and getting your boat inspected, please see the introduction to these regulations or the Yachting New Zealand website www.yachtingnz.org.nz

Thanks for that DP. I will now work on making the Weaver Dan buoy marginally shorter. The couriers might charge me less! No consultation with me as the sole manufacturer to the change.

Also no consultation or publicity to the chandler's that YNZ were re releasing the rules. Likely its been very good that we're here in our bubble not allowed to go anywhere to save any confusion with industry/regulator/end user.

Cat 3 has always been every 2 years. I can't imagine Cat 2 would of been more but never had Cat 2.

So it took 3 years to come up with that outstanding revision.

There was an opportunity to follow the WS regulations and simplify the NZ regs in so many ways. 

Hopefully "Draft" means they are still working on it, stakeholder consultation might have been a better option given the shambles YNZ have managed to make of it themselves.
