The most important stakeholders in the IRC initiative in the United States are the owners of offshore sailboats who compete under the IRC Rule. Ultimately, it is the willingness of owners to attend events and compete in major series that will determine the success or failure of our efforts. In fact the yacht clubs and event organizers that have supported IRC have done so only for the benefit of their members and competitors.
The members of the Association are the owners of all boats holding a current IRC Rating Certificate. Ownership may be in whole or up to one third part of a particular boat. Each owner is entitled to one vote for every IRC boat he owns, only if that boat is wholly owned. In cases of joint ownership, only one vote may be cast per boat. In no case will the number of eligible votes exceed the number of current valid IRC certificates.
