The RC is composed of MYC Fleet Captains, Race Officers, the Scorer and race management committees, such as the SSls Committee and the Protest Committee. The MYC Protest Committee hears and decides protests and requests for redress and responds to rules issues. The RC is chaired by the MYC Vice Commodore. A sailboat which uses a crew in violation of this may be protested and disqualified.
Skippers are responsible for seeing that their crew register with the required fees.
A trial boat registration is available to a new MYC member who has not been a member in the previous ten years and will entitle the sailboat to be raced and scored in the Specialty races. Trial registration fees may be applied toward full registration during the racing season. Racing schedules and starting sequences are listed in the SSls. The preparatory signal for each class will be the warning signal for the next class. Each flag signal will be lowered one minute before the next flag signal is raised.
