Reservation of club boats for racing


By peterg - Posted on 07 April 2010

A club boat can be reserved for the next race by following these steps:

  1. Register your intention to race a club boat
    Up to two weeks before a race, place your name and boat number on the club whiteboard for the race.
    Check to make sure the boat is not damaged.
    Note: Beginner boats (with numbers ending in a B) cannot be taken to a race. 
  2. Reserve the boat
    On the Thursday night before a race, place your name and race details on paper slip, insert into plastic holder and place on boat number holder on your designated boat.  This will ensure other paddlers do not take out the boat at trailer loading time.  Plastic holders and slips are on bench below Race Directors notice board. 
  3. Load Boat on Trailer
    Check whiteboard for loading times.
    If time not specified on whiteboard load trailer from 12noon on Saturday before a race.
    Sign your boat out downstairs at the sign out bench
    Return holder to the tub before loading boat on trailer.
  4. On return to Club
    Meet trailer at club house and assist with unloading.
    Transportation on the club trailer to and from races is at your cost.
    Wash boat and return to correct rack
    Sign your boat in downstairs at the sign out bench.
  5. Report damage
    All damage and problems with the boat should be reported on the damage forms available downstairs at the sign out desk.
Note: 
Adding the boat details to the whiteboard does not guarantee use of boat for the race.
Where ever possible boats will be assigned on a first come first served basis, however after discussion with you the final decision rests with the Race Director(s).
