The purchase of the Rib is an asset. It took considerable time and effort, to first obtain the lottery grant, and then to find the most suitable Rib to meet our requirements.

In order to ensure that everyone is aware of how this asset can be used for their benefit, we wish to outline some ground rules on its use. The Rib will be made available in the following order:

1. Association organised Training Days.
   
   
2. Support Boat at National Ranking or Travellers Trophy events.
   
   
3. Support Boat for Men's Team at International events, or other sailors if a Men's Team is not competing.
   
   
4. Non Europe Association organised Training Days.
   
   
5. Hire to other Class Associations or Clubs.

The Rib has been fitted out with all the essentials, and under the terms of our insurance only qualified drivers will be allowed to use it. Users of the Rib are expected to collect and return it, and will have to sign to confirm everything remains in full working order.

As a note of caution, please also refer to the article 'Safety on the lIne - a Lesson to be learnt'.
