---[2010 Class Rules]--------------------------------------------------

There are seven changes. The two main changes to 2010 Class rules are:-

 

C.4.1 says "Advertising on the boat as chosen by the Owner or person in Charge is Prohibited".  However the decision of the 2008 AGM was to allow advertising. This was further confirmed by a majority NSA website vote in March 2010

 

C.9.2  says (a) ... 2 spinnakers shall be carried aboard (b) The second spinnaker shall only be used if the first is lost or damaged and cannot be repaired afloat.

 

Also: minor 'tweaks' to: C.5.2.a.1,  F.3.4,  F.4.4,  G.5.2.f and

      addition of H3 (Measurement form)
