Register as crew

Please bear in mind the following.

1. Your details will be posted in a secure area of the website, which can be only accessed with a user id and password, provided only to class association members. We ask them not to pass them on to anyone else. We cannot guarantee 100% that nobody else can access your details, but we have taken all practical steps to maintain your privacy while making it reasonably easy for our members to access them - which is after all the point. The more contact details you supply, the better the chance an owner looking for crew at short notice will be able to contact you.
2. Please only register if it is reasonably likely that you will be available if a 707 owner contacts you to offer you a sail. Nobody is free every weekend, but if, for example, if you are already committed to sailing on another boat on many weekends, we would prefer you not to register here. If your situation changes so you are no longer available - for example if you find a 707 to sail on as a result of this list - please take five minutes to remove yourself from the list - you can do so from this page.
3. Last year, many people registered on the list - most found a 707 to sail on. A list of 100 potential crew is hard to owners to deal with, so we do periodically prune it. We will email you before doing so - to remain on the list you will need to update your registration using a userid and password which will be emailed to you once you have registered. Keep the email.
4. Sailing is a risk sport. The class association does not and cannot guarantee your safety if you take up an offer to sail as a result of a contact made through the crew list. We cannot assess the competence of class association members who may contact you, nor the state of maintenance of their boats and other equipment. We simply run the crew list as a free introduction service between our members and people who want to crew 707's. After that, it's up to you.
5. Unless the wind is very light, a 707 is not competitive without the full complement of five crew. If you agree to sail with an owner, this is a 100% committment on your part to join a team for the day. If you don't turn up you have let the owner and the rest of the crew down, and you can be certain you will not be asked again.
6. If you don't have a car, think about the practicalities of how you intend to get to the boat e.g. do you need to find a lift. For example, there are no trains that run from Waterloo towards Southampton early enough on a Sunday for the Winter or Spring Series.
