Each
of the three clubs are organising and hosting
one of three races to be held this season, starting
and finishing in the River Orwell. Entries are
restricted to members of the 3 Organising Clubs.
As in previous years, these are fun races to
attract new and past participants. We continue
to have the support of the “Evening Star” newspaper,
which is awarding a special trophy to the winning
club. Awards may also be made at the discretion
of the Race Committee for individual achievement.
The
first three boats from each Club to complete each race
in the series will attract points according to their
overall position on handicap. Points will be awarded
as follows: 1st – 1 point; 2nd – 2 points;
3rd – 3 points, and so on. All races
count, this changes RRS A4.The Club with the
smallest total number of points will win each
race. The Club with the smallest total cumulative
number of points over the series will be the
overall winner. Ties in scoring will be resolved
as per RRS A8.
Where fewer than three yachts enter from any one
Club in any race, the absent yachts will be scored
as, the number of entries on the day plus 1. The
same applies for a yacht that does not finish.

If
only one vessel enters any race, the race will
be void.
Races
will be sailed under the “Racing
Rules of Sailing 2005- 2008” as
amended by the Three Clubs' River Series
Sailing Instructions.
Races are open to all mono-hull
cruising yachts of 17 feet waterline length and
over, owned and helmed by members of any of the
3 Organising Clubs.
The organisers anticipate all competitors
will attend the Host Club after racing for Afternoon
Tea. Bar facilities will also be available.
Prizegiving for individual races
and for the overall series will be presented
at the Pin Mill SailingClub on Saturday
20th September at 20:00 hrs.
All
Races will start in Buttermans Bay, on the River
Orwell and will finish on the finish line of each
respective Club, on the day of their hosting the
event. Details on the Course
