There has been a change to BAMA's requirements for the DH Farallones race to include either a 406 MHz EPIRB or a 406 MHz PLB. Include the registration number on the application form. If you have already entered, be sure that you contact BAMA with the number.

19. 406 MHz EPIRB or PLB registered with NOAA to the yacht in the race as required by the Coast Guard for offshore races past Point Bonita.
