The mission of the Superyacht Racing Rules Committee is to address all issues pertaining to the Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS) and superyacht racing. The committee’s actions will include evaluating the RRS Appendix SY (the RRS appendix for superyacht racing) and recommending changes or additions when deemed in the best interest of safe and fair racing. An additional role is to help provide further clarity and amplification to competitors on the interpretation of the Appendix SY. The committee will also review and provide feedback to organizers on RRS Afterguard Members and Communications Officers policies and procedures.
