There are further signs that we may be able to go racing soon, and Marine Area Command NSW Police Force issued new advice yesterday:

In areas subject to stay-at-home orders – including Greater Sydney and some regional areas five people are allowed on a recreational boat in the following circumstances:

• All people 16+ are fully vaccinated, or more if they are all members of the same household.

• There is room for one person per four square metres, otherwise the two-person rule applies

• You are not outside your LGA, or more than five kilometres from your home

This is not particularly helpful for racing but we are expecting further easing of restrictions from 11 October and will keep you posted.

RANSA is still planning to start the new Twilight Racing Season on schedule on Friday 22 October, and the Notice of Race and entry details are attached and online here; Official Notice Board: NoRs, SIs and Amendments - RAN Sailing Association

Remember that will hold the mandatory pre-season skippers’ briefing via Zoom on Wednesday 6 October at 1830. You can join by opening the following link a few minutes before 1830: https://zoom.us/j/98997586857?pwd=NE44KzlIa1UvS0wvSVd5WXN1NjF1QT09

Keep safe, and looking forward to seeing you on screen on 6 October, and back on the water for the new Twilight Season!
