Pour les épreuves se courant avec un classement quarter, je vous propose d’appliquer les règles de classes suivantes en homogénéité avec nos amis Anglais.

Quarter Ton Class Rules 2010

1. All boats shall have a current IRC Certificate with a maximum rating of 0.920.

2. All boats shall have a Series Age Date prior to 1996.

3. All boats shall have a Hull Series Date prior to 1996 (Note: Any hull changes
should be pre-agreed with the Rating Authority to ensure that modifications do
not alter the boat's Hull Date.

4. All boats or a sistership shall have had an RORC Rating of 16 ft or less between
1967- 1970 or an IOR Rating of 17 ft - 18 ft for the years 1971 - 1978, or an IOR
Rating of between 17.5 - 18.5 for the years 1979 - 1996.

5. Crew. The maximum number of crew shall be 5. However, where a boat is
crewed by 5 females, that boat may carry a 6th crewmember.

6. The owner or joint owner shall steer the yacht in all Quarter Ton events. In
exceptional circumstances, where the owner prefers not to helm, dispensation
may be given for an ISAF Category 1 sailor to helm the boat (Alternate Helm).
Permission for the Alternate Helm must be obtained from the Quarter Ton Class
Secretary at least 7 days prior to any Quarter Ton event. Being ISAF Category 1
does not mean automatic acceptance as an Alternate Helm. The Alternate Helm
will be expected to be a regular member of the crew.

7. Applications will be considered from boats for Quarter Ton events who believe

that they were genuine Quarter Tonners but who are unable to prove an IOR or

RORC Rating. The Secretary will seek the guidance of the RORC Rating Office whose

decision shall be final.
