GENERAL MARSHAL/STAKE BOAT GUIDELINES

  • Spectators afloat will want to get close to the action. Be courteous, specific and firm!
  • One person should remain at the helm and another communicate with spectators
  • Encourage intruders to move out from the Race Course by giving them specific instructions –such as “please move to the west”
  • Make sure your radio remains on the appropriate channel –low power should suffice

  • In the event of an emergency involving a spectator boat, call the Coast Guard on Ch 16
  • Race Event Management will control competitor emergency situations
