Please note these very important COVID 19 protocols:
- This is not an event, it is an opportunity to sail in company
- You must observe Provincial COVID 19 restrictions as follows: Gathering limit without social distancing – you can form a close social group of up to 10 people without social distancing; you’re not required to be exclusive but are strongly encouraged to maintain a consistent group (people shouldn’t gather in random or spontaneous groups of 10) Please note that gatherings not run by a recognized business or organization, for example a family event in the backyard, are still subject to the 50-person maximum limit with physical distancing unless you’re in your close social group of 10. If your group of ten meets another group: KEEP YOUR DISTANCE
- Please review Transport Canada COVID-19 Boating Safety Points here.
