Yesterday the NSW Government announced the imminent winding back of “stay at home rules” and we can’t wait to be racing again!

For the time being there are no changes and we ask members to continue to observe the restrictions and advice previously communicated.

There will be a relaxation of these restrictions for those who are fully vaccinated once the NSW vaccination rate reaches 70%, which his expected to occur on 11 October (more on this next week).

The club will be able to resume for those who are fully vaccinated after the NSW vaccination rate reaches 80% and the club is preparing for that as follows:

  • The season calendar will be updated shortly, with racing expected to resume on Saturday 30 October, subject to the public health orders.

  • The volunteer roster will resume to align with this timing. Please keep an eye out for this email and respond promptly as we will not be able to provide the normal amount of advance notice.

  • To assist with roster planning we will be asking members to confirm their vaccination status, to ensure compliance with the rules. We will also ask members to provide proof of vaccination on first attending the club for racing (the club will maintain a register of this).

  • It is time to complete the Australian Sailing Mark Laying course if you have not done so already. We are asking members please to do this prior to commencement of racing.

For those who are not fully vaccinated, the Government has announced that restrictions will be relaxed from 1 December. 

We look forward to seeing you at the club soon.
