The Paynesville Classic Boat Rally Feb 28th To March 1st 2020
Posted: 14 Nov 2019, 21:40
Hi All,
Ross Foster and I were asked to meet with some members of the rally committee so we could have input into the organising the event so it could better support the inclusion of our power boats for the "Parade of Power"
Some would remember that previous events only supported our boats via an "On land display"
Next years event will now include "demonstration runs" of our boats and others that fall into the power boat category in the "Parade of Power".
So far the developments are as follows:
1. The "Parade of Power" will occur on the Sunday
2. Entry must be done using the On land entry form on the website. Once you complete the on land entry you will receive and email for the on water component.
3. We will have a speed dispensation for the waterway to allow our boats to operate at the required speeds for the demo runs
4. The "Parade of Power" is separate to Saturdays "Grand Parade" (Grand Parade limited to 5 knots) and will include small motor boats and alike and you can participate in that if you wish.
5. We have asked for specific requirements regarding number of laps (warm ups), continued ramp access for those leaky boats and safety, waterways equipment requirements and dispensations, safety boat, turn buoys, exclusions zones and markers, grouping of boats in each run, etc
6. The committee will be meeting next Wednesday and we will know more hopefully. Please keep an eye out on their page https://www.facebook.com/groups/4244464 ... oup_header
7. This is their event and they have asked for our input. Don't shoot the messenger if the outcome doesn't suite you!
8. I will endeavour to keep everyone updated but please get the word out and check the website.
9. The on land booking page is https://www.trybooking.com/book/event?e ... VCakBUPg4A
Again you will need to book for the on land display and you will then receive an email confirmation for the on water display (separate registration form - no cost)
Thanks.
Craig.
