We are looking for volunteers who can help with the race management functions (escorts/umpiring/marshalling, mark laying, committee boats etc) and registered passenger boats for the media and corporate hospitality functions.
The range of craft needed vary in size/operational capacity, a rough guide being 6-10metres, operational capability from 10-35knots with an offshore range from 5 – 20 nautical miles.
In addition there will be a requirement for some larger registered passenger craft to fulfil Corporate Hospitality functions – there is no specific specification here except perhaps in terms of the number of guests who could be hosted. There would be no specific operational capability either as most would operate either along-side or on inshore waters.
If you own a boat and are interested in helping to make this event a success, please contact info@letsdoitgalway.com for further details.
