GREYHAWK 2010 Lobster Run Crew Information Form

The purpose of this form is to collect information I need from the crew — information that might help in selecting the crew from among the many who are interested, and information that the Race Organizers need on the entry form, as well as information that I'll need once we're all on the boat. My thought is that using a form like this will make sure I get all the necessary information, and get it all systematically in a consistent fashion.

Fill this out as best you can; don't feel that you have to enter something in every box. Also, don't feel limited by the box size -- I think they will scroll if you have more to say! If you want to print the form out and work on it "offline" that's fine, although ultimately I would like you to enter and submit your information online.

When you're done, press the "SUBMIT" button at the bottom of the form. If successful, you will get a page showing you all the information that you submitted. If you want to (or have to) change anything, you can just submit the form again. You only need to enter your name, e-mail, and the information you wish to change or update, as I will still have your previously submitted data.

If you haven't already, you may wish to review my preliminary thoughts in planning for the Lobster Run, and here's all my information.

The Lobster Run organizers have imposed limitations on the participation of professional sailors in this race, and thus they require all crew to have an ISAF Classification, basically a determination as to whether you are a professional sailor or not. ISAF Classification is free: http://www.sailing.org/classification/first-application.php

To participate in the Lobster Run, you will have to sign a waiver releasing the race organizers of liability. Are you OK with that?   

We'll collect signatures on the liability form at one of the pre-race events, but if you want to see it in advance, you can download or view a PDF.

You don't have to answer these questions right now, but I will need this information from all crew before we go out sailing. The information you provide here will be shared with the rest of the crew on the boat only as appropriate to ensuring safety for all.
