Insurance Please ensure you have the appropriate insurance in place for competing in this event. You may be covered if you are an instructor, or have membership to British Canoeing or similar. We are delighted to be working with Noble Marine Insurance who have offered all Great Glen participants a preferential rate. https://www.noblemarine.co.uk/boats-we-insure/surfboard-sailboard-paddleboard/ General Safety When the safety of the participant is not 100% guaranteed, the organisation can take the participant out of the event. The participant is at all times responsible to judge their own situation and the potential danger that could occur . The organisation will not be deemed responsible for the participants decisions on safety. Race Safety The race may be cancelled, postponed or shortened if water or weather conditions are deemed too hazardous by race officials. Paddlers must carry a mobile phone and means of charging in a waterproof container at all times. Race Directors number must be stored in your phone – number will be informed at briefing All SUP paddlers must wear PFD and quick release waist leash at all times. PFD can be waist PFD for SUP, it must be serviced and you must be familiar with how to use. All sit down paddlers must wear full PFD. If not wearing correct safety requirements, you will receive instant disqualifications. All paddlers must ensure they wear suitable clothing for the water and weather conditions. We encourage drysuits or neoprene. Water temperature will be around 5 degrees. All paddlers must carry a whistle, torch, phone, tracker and bivvy bag on their person Sufficient food and drink will enable to athlete to keep paddling. Please ensure you take enough food and drink for the full distance. Water and snacks will be available at checkpoints but please do not rely on this for your race hydration and nutrition. Cut off Times We have cut off times at checkpoints across the course, these are detailed in your race schedule. If a paddler does not arrive by the cut off time they can opt to continue paddling the course, but it will be as an individual paddler and not under the safety of the race. Your race number, bib and tracker must be removed Please remember we will be paddling downwind so this will ensure a faster paddle time. If you choose to continue paddling as an individual paddler and not as part of the event you must sign a disclaimer at the checkpoint. Water Craft Choice Please ensure you paddle the correct water craft for the water conditions. We would advise one that is suitable for ocean conditions. The large bodies of water can resemble the ocean if the wind picks up. We do not advise the use of flat water narrow boards / boats.
