Boat certification where the sails are already certified

When a boat is supplied with certified sails but where no other equipment is certified, what is the Official Measurer required to do?

Where the sails are sourced from outside the UK it may be advisable to check that the measurer who certified the sails is properly authorised to do so by his country’s World Sailing Member National Authority.

IOM Class

The Official Measurer completes the certification control forms as usual except for the sections relating to sail certification. Endorsing the forms to the effect that the sails are already certified will add clarity for the class registrar.

Marblehead, Ten Rater and A Classes

Where the sails are supplied with correctly completed certification control forms for the sails, the Official Measurer completes the other certification control forms as usual. All the forms are then sent to the class registrar. Note that for A Class sails the relevant measurements B and J would be marked on the sails.
