Racing Rules:
The regatta will be governed by the rules as defined in the 2021 - 2024 Racing Rules of Sailing, as modified by Appendix E, the Sailing Instructions, the Rules of the Micro Magic Class Association, and this NOR.
Racing Format:
The Race Director will determine the number of races for each day after considering the current weather conditions, course layout, and equipment conditions. Three (3) races will constitute a Micro Magic Class Championship Regatta. If there are more than 18 boats registered at the time of the first Skipper's Meeting, racing will either be conducted under the 2017 Heat Management System (HMS), or the CESS Pool Scoring System.
Awards:
AMYA RED Chevrons and Trophies will be awarded to a minimum of the top 5 skippers, with other Special Awards also presented.
Frequency Assignments:
Since most competitors now use 2.4Ghz Transmitter/Receiver this should not be an issue. Skippers using non 2.4Ghz equipment should list all their available radio Frequency/Channel #'s on the Entry Form. Frequency Assignments will be handled on a First come - First serve basis, in the same manner that sail # will be handled. Every effort will be made to accommodate each skipper with their channels listed if needed. We will contact any skipper if this becomes an issue to resolve any conflicts.
Boat Inspection:(Optional)
All boats will be inspected for conformance with the current Micro Magic Class Rules at the time of Check-in. Measurements will include at a minimum the weight , sail size, keel depth, and any other aspect as determined by the Micro Magic Class Secretary. All boats must display sail numbers, size and contrasting color from sail color as per the Micro Magic Class Rules. Multiple rigs (B+, B, C, D, and E rigs) may be used also and must also conform with respect to sail # and to the Micro Magic Class Rules.
Code of Conduct: By entering this Regatta you understand and agree to compete in the spirit of Sportsmanship and Corinthian Spirit. In the event of any protest which is deemed to be a breach of good manners or sportsmanship, or which may bring the sport into dispute, the Race Director, and/or any designated Race official, or competitor may protest the party or parties in accordance with RRS #2. Penalties available to the RD and Protest Committee, include exclusion from the Race in question, or expulsion from the regatta as per RRS #69.2 and #69.3 in accordance with the AMYA's policy.
