\nRKYC Member’s Day Sail Past Protocol
\nThe Procedure:
\nThe Sail Past takes place by sailing alon
g the outside of the main wharf. Sailboats are to
\nbe sailed under m
ain and jib alone. Auxiliary power may be used\, where available to
\nmaintain position and safety. In the event of calm winds\, smaller boats
and dinghies
\nmay be towed.
The Reviewing Point is the midd
le of the main wharf. The dispersal point for all boats
\nparticipat
ing in the Sail Past will be a reasonable distance beyond the Reviewing Po
int
\nas determined by wind conditions.
Yachts are to proceed
to the designated marshaling area and take station under
\nthe direc
tion of the Fleet Captain. The Commodore will lead the fleet\, followed by
the
\nFlag Officers and the Past Commodores followed by the Junior S
ailing. The rest of the
\nfleet should generally have the large sailb
oats leading\, power boats to tail. The Fleet
\nCaptain should be las
t. Departure from the marshaling area will be the western or
\neaster
n passage\, as determined by wind directions.
Yachts should be sai
led from the marshaling area to the Reviewing Point\, line-astern\,
\nat 30-yard intervals. On approaching the Reviewing Point\, yachts salute
from two
\nboat lengths before the Reviewing Point to two boat lengt
hs after.
\nFor the Review itself\, lead yachts are to maintain a spe
ed that allows following
\nboats to keep in station. In favorable win
ds\, sails should be set up so as not to exceed
\nfour knots of speed
.
An appropriate Salute consists of “dipping” the ensign\, with th
e Skipper and crew
\nfacing starboard with head gear doffed. Boats wi
thout ensigns will salute by luffing the
\njib. The salute will be ta
ken by the Honorary Commodore in company with a number of
\nPast Comm
odores of the Club.
Boat dress for the occasion is appropriate siz
ed ensigns and burgees. The first
\nboat will cross the Reviewing lin
e at 1930 hrs.
The guard frequency for the Sail Past is channel 68
VHF. Those with VHF sets
\nwill relay information to those without.
In the event of an emergency\, a warning will be
\nbroadcast to all v
essels.
For safety\, the accepted rules of the road are to be obse rved.
