Level 1 Club Race Officer course
Volunteering to assist the Race Officer in the Race Box is expected of members who sail at Hammersmith and is a great way to learn how to race on our reach. Even if you don't sail on the river, you'll build knowledge of how racing is run anywhere. So even if you just plan to sail on yachts with some racing on the Solent the course would be well worth your while.
No previous experience is needed. The course run at the club is free, lasts for 2 hours and will give you the skills needed for deputy RO.
What you will learn is:
·Preparations
·Familiarisation with the Race Box
·Starting a race
·Managing a race
·Finishing a race
·Results sheets
·Tidy up
Places are limited to 6 per course so first come first serve.
