Application for No-Appeal Event Status

Application for No-Appeal Event Status
US Sailing’s Prescription to Rule 70.5(a) requires its approval if the right of appeal is to be denied when “it is essential to determine promptly the result of a race that will qualify a boat to compete in a later stage of an event or a subsequent event.”

No-appeal status is granted to very few events. Please review the requirements and procedures for no-appeal status on the No-Appeal (Rule 70.5) Procedures web page before proceeding.
