Responsibility and Liability   The decision to sail and participate in this race is made by the sailors of each boat, who are responsible for their own safety.  The organizations, companies and individuals running this race, such as the Race Committee, Host, sponsors, Organizing Committee, cooperating companies, etc. shall not be held liable for any injuries, death or property damage suffered by the participating sailors or third parties before, during or after the race. 18. Boat Travel Cost Subsidy   18.1 By taking the Race Venue (Pohang) as the reference point, a boat travel cost subsidy will be paid, depending upon the distance the boat had to travel to get to the Race Venue and the amount of subsidy will be announced later. If a boat finishes only the first leg of the Offshore Race, the subsidy will be reduced to 30% of the amount that would otherwise have been paid.  If, however, the Organizing Committee determines that the boat could not finish the Offshore Race Leg 1 or Leg 2 due to unavoidable circumstances, they may decide to pay all or a part of the subsidy amount.   18.2 For specially invited foreign sailors who do not bring in their own boat but use boats provided by the Race Organizing Committee, there is no subsidy paid for boat travel costs.  However, the Organizing Committee may decide to pay for all or a portion of their airfare and domestic transportation expenses, hotel expenses, and may decide to provide the use of a boat free of charge.   18.3 All boat travel subsidy payments shall have 10% deducted for charitable donations to poor countries and children designated by KSF (such as UNICEF donations). 19. Race Insurance Third party liability insurance, which is readily obtainable for racing in foreign countries, is difficult or impossible to obtain in Korea.  Thus, the Organizing Committee will not require race participants to carry such insurance.  However, the Organizing Committee may require participants to subscribe to travel insurance or other such insurance that covers one’s own injuries and death during the race.  Requirements for race insurance will be posted through amendments to this Notice of Race. 20.
