Sailor Consent
I give consent for my child to participate in sailing activities at Mounts Bay Sailing Club and Melville Waters.

I understand that there is a significant risk of bruises, cuts, scratches and other injuries resulting from contact with a boat or collision of other boats.

Flapping sails or unanticipated changes in wind direction or in the direction of the boat can cause a spar to bump the head or other parts of the body. These injuries can occur afloat or while near a boat on land.

While sailing dinghies on inshore waters, serious injuries of the type that can cause permanent disability or death are statistically rare but can and do occur.

While a support boat might be present, such boats cannot be everywhere at once, and cannot observe every incident that occurs and may not always recognise an observed incident as being serious requiring immediate response.

In the event of a life-threatening accident, I consent to the child identified above to being treated as necessary to prevent serious harm to health.

I give consent for my child to be photographed and/or videoed as noted above.
