Women's Third Thursday Social: Protest Hearings

Time: Check in at 6:45, program starts at 7:00

Protests are relatively rare for those of us that sail keelboats, b

ut there's no need to let it be an intimidating experience. Barbara Belt, who has been a US Sailing Club judge since 2017, will walk us through the steps of a protest, do’s and don’ts, and then host a mock protest. Men are welcome to join the social but we ask that they let the questions be asked by women.

Barbara Belt races dinghies and windsurfers, and daysails a trimaran.  She is a member of Port Madison Yacht Club and Seabrook Sailing Club near Houston, TX.
