GENERAL INFORMATION
Keelboat Sign Ons
For all Keelboat skippers that are able to receive SMS’s, please Sign On via the SMS sent to your mobile phone via On Water Group a few hours prior to each race. If the number of persons onboard changes, please update via the same SMS i.e. go back to the original SMS and update the PoB.
Skippers unable to use the SMS Sign On, can arrange to have the SMS sent to another regular crew person who can Sign On on your behalf. Just add in their mobile number in the additional mobile field in your TopYacht boat profile. On Water Group can assist with this.
Alternatively, use the Sign On sheet in the foyer outside the On Water Group office.
If all else fails, contact SoPYC Race Control via VHF Radio but please be conscious of keeping your transmission short as possible and never during a start sequence.
Off The Beach Post-Race Presentations
Please note that the presentations usually held in the Quarterdeck area on the main clubhouse following the days racing, will now be held at the Centreboard Clubhouse on the following dates:
- Sunday 12 January
- Sunday 23 February
- Sunday 08 March
- Sunday 29 March
SoPYC Boats Looking For Crew
The Crew Finder page has been updated once again. This time the Boats Looking For Crew list has been refreshed. From this point onwards, Boats Looking For Crew submissions will remain online for a period of 60 days. During that time our Crew Co-ordinator duo of Brian Saleeba and Bruce Uren will do their best to fill your requirements. If after 60 days, you are still needing crew, you will need to submit again.
