From Emma Humphries
Regional Manager NSW/ACT
Australian Sailing
Hello club officials,
Whilst I do not yet have the exact restrictions that will be applicable to sailing and club activities when we hit 70% and 80% vaccinated;
The breaking news today is –
5 fully vaccinated people can go sailing
Marine Area Command NSW Police Force have issued new advice today
In areas subject to stay-at-home orders – including Greater Sydney and some regional areas five people are allowed on a recreational boat in the following circumstances:
- All people 16+ are fully vaccinated, or more if they are all members of the same household.
- There is room for one person per four square metres, otherwise the two-person rule applies
- You are not outside your LGA, or more than five kilometres from your home
I will email all clubs as soon as I have more information about the rules that will apply at 70% and 80%.
Regards,
Emma
