A streamlined measuring process has been developed for National Championships.  Based on experience from previous years, a set number of items have been listed for use by regatta organisers.    These are listed on the attached Starling Nationals Measuring Form.  An explanation of the measurers’ interpretations is attached under Starling Nationals Measuring Explanations.  Regional measurers will be able to pre-measure boats prior to the contest for all but the hull weight and safety items.  Water & tamper proof labels will be attached to the measured parts.  Spot checks of these labelled components may be conducted at the discretion of the Nationals race committee.  Pre-measured boats arriving at Nationals can expect substantially reduced time delays for completing registration and measuring than had been the case in previous years.
