Hi All,
 
I recall comming across a class "checklist" to be signed by the skipper prior to a few class sanctionned regatta. Is there anyone aware of this checklist?
 
I would like to suggest to the Magog regatta organisers to have each owner sign this list prior to the race. We have seen stripped boats, overweight crews, and such lately in Magog. 
 
I would forward this checklist to the Magog guys if I can put my hands on it.
 
Thanks

The requirements for Laser 28 Class sanctioned events is listed in the Class Rules;

http://www.laser28.org/Class.aspx?selpage=Rules - http://www.laser28.org/Class.aspx?selpage=Rules - Laser 28 Class Rules link

I'm sure that everyone in Magog intends to sail by and enforce the Class Rules, it makes it much more fun Wink Thumbs Up

Class Rules will also be in effect for the North Americans in Montreal starting September 25th, just like the Canadian Championships in Magog September 19th.

This list can be used for any sanctioned L28 regatta. We did so in the past.

The safety equipment was a mirror of Canadian Coast Guard requirements at the time we last used this list.... today the CCG regulations only requires 1 Life-jacket per person aboard.

The Class Royalty Paid label on sails hasn't been in effect for quite sometime. However The rest of the L28 class rules are in effect at all sanctioned regattas. Any boat can be inspected anytime during a sanctioned regatta. If a boat is found not to conform to class rules they will be disqualified immediately.

Denise will bring the class scale should there be any disputes over crew weight.

Thanks all for replying, I think it makes sense to bring the scale down in Magog, might not be necessary to do a full "scale" weigh-in, but to let the people know what is the limitation and that the scale is there might be taken seriously.
  
Once again, I do remember seeing a list that the owner had to put a "check" in little box at then end of each line of listed items, sign it and return to the rc.
 
We don't want to raise anything, just let everyone know that as the fleet pick up, thing should be done properly.
