By acquiring an Australian Sailing Sail Pass (via NCYC), racing participants (skippers and crew) will meet the requirements of Australian Sailing's prescription, to Racing Rule 46. An Australian Sailing SailPass will also provide racing participants with personal accident insurance cover, for the day/s that they are registered.  Participants of training courses do not require a SailPass.
