Safety notes and Disclaimer of Responsibility
- The boat’s crew is entirely responsible for their own safety, whether ashore or afloat, and nothing whether in the Notice of Race or the Rowing Instructions or anywhere else reduces this responsibility.
- It is for the boat’s crew to decide whether she and they are fit to row in the conditions they find themselves in. By launching the crew confirm that the boat is fit for the conditions and that the crew is competent to row and compete in the conditions.
- Nothing done by the organisers can reduce the responsibility of the boat’s crew nor will it make the organisers responsible for any loss, damage, personal injury or death, however it may have occurred, as a result of the boat having taken part in the racing. The organisers encompass everyone helping to run the race and the Regatta and include the Regatta Committee, volunteer helpers, Race Controller and Marshal boat crews.
- The provision of Marshal boats does not relieve crews of their responsibilities.
- Personal flotation devices are at the discretion of the crews.
- Each boat is required to hold adequate insurance and, in particular, to hold insurance against third party claims to the sum of £2,000,000.
- Entries from competitors under the age of 18 are subject to parent/guardian authority and the declaration to that effect must be completed on the Entry form.
