2016 Sail Fleet Agreement

Sail Fleet Program Overview
2016 Season

Club members over the age of 18 in good standing can captain boats in the Ideal 18 and Mercury sail fleet once you fulfill the following requirements:

1)  Attend the Mandatory Sailors Meeting. This is required each season. Typically this is offered 2 times per season in May or separately arranged with the Education Director on case-by-case basis for members coming into the club after that date.

2)  Read and sign the Sail Fleet Use Agreement for the current year.  A link to the agreement registration is on the club calendar from April 28 to May 28 for 2016.  In the event that you do not have access to event registration online please submit a hard copy to Lou Casolo, Education Director. This Agreement is located at OGYC.org under the Sailing menu.

3)  Obtain your CT Safe Boating Card. There are many ways to do this as outlined on the Learn to Sail web page. This is a one time requirement.

4) Take a Low Tide Tour. This is only required once and members are welcome to repeat each year if they would like a refresher which is helpful given some of the changes in the harbor.

5)  Certification to sail in light and/or heavy air as described in the Sail Fleet Agreement. This US Sailing Association Small Boat Certification is a TEST of your skills and is not instructional. 

6)  Any Corinthian or Life member using the sail fleet must pay for launch service.  They may not come as a guest of another member. 

7)  Volunteer at a Sail Fleet work party at least once during the season.
