New rules on Buoyancy introduced by NW Rowing Council

Boat Buoyancy

bullet From the 1st October 2009 any boat that does not have sealed compartments along its length and has no buoyancy bags or similar floatation devices added will not be allowed on the water at ARA events in the North West Region.  

Clubs in the North West running events after this date should:

1 - Ensure that the above rule is made clear in promotional literature for the event.

2 - Ensure that the above rule is made clear in the event safety plan distributed to umpires and clubs taking part in the event. 

3 - Ensure that the above rule is included in any specific boat checking instructions used in the event.

Carl Douglas runs a service which will test and modify the buoyancy of a racing shell to meet FISA standards.
