Regatta Procedures

Reference Documents

On July 23, 2000, the AMYA Board of Directors adopted, and in February 2010 updated, a document called AMYA Championship Regatta Guidelines which details required and recommended aspects of National and Regional competitions. This document defines the precedence order of the various documents involved, and seeks to pull together into one convenient place all of the information that may affect the official conduct of an event. The table below includes links for all of the referenced documents.

Table of Links​
  • Championship Regatta Guidelines
  • Recommended Sailing Instructions
  • Notice of Race template for AMYA events
  • Protest and Redress Form
  • RC Observer Guidelines
  • Racing Rules of Sailing
  • Heat Racing Systems
  • National Championship Regatta Subsidy​
