With the reduced calendar, you may ask yourself, why be member of WT? One of the primary reasons for WT and other AWA affiliates to exist is to provide a legal entity for 3rd Party insurance coverage. The AWA has spent a lot of effort in renegotiating the insurance post COVID and the new policy offers some additional benefit:
This insurance cover applies when members and other insured persons/entities are involved in activities that are sanctioned by AWA/WT. These activities include sanctioned AWA/WT events, training, practice sessions, and windsurfing activities 24 hours a day (except organised events not sanctioned by AWA/WT).
Effectively that means that WT members sailing together in GPS, wave or other "training" activities maintain "member to member" cover for 3rd party insurance.
