Safety At Sea Committee
 

If you need any interpretations of, for example, the International Sailing Federation Special regulations Governing Offshore and Oceanic Equipment and Preparation for 2006-2007 including US SAILING Prescriptions, or development of a safety inspection committee, turn to a "local" and ask for their guidance.
