may have or in the future may have against SNI, ILYC, YSI, their respective
officers, directors, agents, volunteers, or employees, for any bodily injury
or death suffered by the undersigned or for any damage to any boat or other
property arising out of my involvement in the FALL EQUINOX REGATTA or training
therefor, and any other related activities sponsored by SNI, ILYC, or YSI, in
connection with the conduct and organization of the FALL EQUINOX REGATTA. I
am in good health and have no physical condition that would prevent me from
participating in this event.
The undersigned acknowledges that participation in the sport of sailing or in

or borrowed for purposes of this event.
In consideration of this entry being accepted, I hereby for myself, heirs, executors,
administrators, waive and release any and all right and claim for damages I
may have against the R.I. Department of Environmental Management, the State
of Rhode Island, their agents, representatives, successors and assigns for any
and all injuries suffered by me at said event or while travelling to or returning

state, its agents, servants, and its employees, I agree to permit the full use
of my name and picture in any broadcast, telecast and other accounts of this
