Person Overboard Compliance Declaration 2026-2027 Form

All boats wishing to compete in racing at SYC, must carry out a mandatory Person Overboard (POB) exercise.
A boat which has not submitted a Person Overboard compliance declaration after 1 September 2026, must lodge this with the SYC Boating Office prior to 31 October 2026 or a boat’s first race of the season, whichever is later. This form is also available on the SYC website at Boat Safety & Audits - Sandringham Yacht Club or from the SYC Boating Office.

The names of all the crew members who completed this compulsory POB exercise shall be listed below. It is recommended, that as new crew join the boat, that they be taken through the vessels’ POB procedures and/or additional POB exercises are undertaken.
