Dear Owners and boat captains,

The Rolex Capri Sailing Week in Capri, ITALY is being held May 16-19. This
event has been designated as the 1st leg of the Farr 40 European Circuit
2007.

The Entry form is attached to this message (HERE) and general information can be
accessed through the links on the Yacht Club Capri and Yacht Club Costa
Smeralda web sites: www.yachtclubcapri.it - www.yccs.it

ENTRY DEADLINE. The entry deadline is April 15, 2007. Late entries are
subject to the O.A. approval.

I would like to remind also that in order to enter in any of the events of
the European circuit 2007 you must apply for European fleet membership.

This is seperate from membership of the International Class Association.

Attached (HERE), please find the form to be completed and sent back to the Fleet
secretariat at your earliest convenience but prior to racing in Capri
(1st event of the Circuit).

Following are some other useful information:

MOORINGS. The entry fee includes mooring fees from 08.00 hrs on 14th May,
2007 to 08.00 hrs on 20th May, 2007 at Marina Grande Capri provided that
the completed entry form and entry fee are received by the Yacht Club
Capri before 15th April,2007.

SUPPORT TRAILERS. Only a few spaces are available for containers and motor
vehicles at the Marina and prior Police is required for its use. The
reservation of space is therefore highly recommended and a special section
as regards the latter has been included in the entry form, to be completed
and sent together with the form by the date indicated to the YCC.

SAIL BUTTONS may be purchased in advance (US $60 each) through Stagg
Yachts or at the regatta. If you need sail buttons and can let us know by
the end of April, we can have your buttons done and waiting at
registration.

The following forms need to be completed in order to participate:

CLASS DUES and One Design Certificate fees must be paid prior to racing.

site at: http://www.farr40.org/images/stories/Appendix_5.pdf
The form can be faxed to 410-268-1137.
This form must be received no later than April 15 so that we can check
crew classification against the ISAF database, and let you know if any of
your crew are not registered.

CREW CLASSIFICATION. If you have any crew members that need to apply, the
ISAF application can be found at
http://www.sailing.org/isafsailor/default.asp . Each crew member will
need to register with ISAF Sailor to receive a user name and password and
then must check "yes" for ISAF Classification to complete the application
using their new password. 90% of all classification requests are
completed within seven days, but we need crew lists early in case the
applications take more time.

RELIEF, SUBSTITUTE OR CHARTERING HELMSMEN. Any chartering, relief or
substitute helmsman must be approved by the Farr 40 Helmsman Eligibility
Committee, and declared on the entry form and crew list. Substitutes
must comply with Class Rule 2.6. The helmsman application form can be
