For fractions below 1/10th (GBP 3,500) the weeks to be used in each year will be allocated by lottery, 1 week for each 50th fraction.

The order in which the weeks are chosen by the fractional scheme members would rotate, with the initial order being decided by lottery.

To use the yacht a minimum level of competence would be needed. This would be provided either by possession of certificates (e.g. Day Skipper, Yachtmaster) or by proof of experience/trial.
