๐Ÿšฉ Ocean Posse Fleet Roster Number Policy

Ahoy Ocean Posse Captains and Crew,

As we prepare to launch the new ย  season, itโ€™s important to set clear guidelines for the Fleet Roster Numbers โ€” to honor our history, recognize participation, and keep the Posse spirit strong, fair, and spirited.

If you do not care which roster number you get – you can stop reading now. !

Hereโ€™s how roster numbers will be managed

โš“ 1. ) Automatic Number Assignments

For those captains who simply wish to renew or when signing up without requesting a specific number:

  • Existing members will automatically retain their current roster number.

  • New members will be assigned the next available number in sequential order

  • Thereโ€™s no requirement to submit number preferences.

  • Your renewal keeps you part of the fleet โ€” and thatโ€™s what truly matters.

โš“ 2.) Roster Number Policy :

3. Legacy Members Keep Their Numbers

Existing members will retain their current roster numbers by renewing their membership on time during the renewal period.

4. New Members Assigned After Renewals

New vessels joining the Ocean Posse will be assigned available numbers as membership numbers become available.ย 

5. Requesting a Different Number

Renewing members may request a different roster number, if available,
with priority given based on original membership join date and renewal timing.
You can only request one number change per membership renewal.

6. Skipping a Season

If a member does not renew for a season:

  • Their roster number is released back into the available pool.

  • If they return – they will be assigned a new available number.

7. No Transfers or Side Deals

Roster numbers are assigned to the vessel and captain.
They may not be sold, traded, or transferred privately.

If a roster number is traded, sold, or transferred unofficially The number will be revoked and placed back into the available pool.
Roster numbers are assigned and made avail through continued participation โ€” not transactions.

8. Non-Renewals and Late Renewals

Roster numbers not renewed by the renewal deadline will be cleared and reassigned to new or requesting members as needed.

๐ŸŒŸ 9. Preferred Number Requests

When renewing, members may submit a Preferred Number Request, listing:

  • First Choice number

  • Second Choice number
  • Third Choice number
  • and a DO NOT ASSIGN NUMBER – such as 13 etc

Preferred numbers are granted based on:

  • Renewal timing (first renewed, first served – yes you can renew early to get to the top of the list )

  • Availability of requested numbers

If none of the preferred numbers are available, members will retain their current number or be assigned the next best ( lower ) available number.

Important:
Preferred numbers are granted only after renewal payment is received.
Requests made without completed renewal are not valid.
Renew early to improve your chance of receiving your preferred number.
