MEDICAL RECORD AND PARTICIPANT INFORMATION
SEA EDUCATION ASSOCIATON
Instructions: Participants must complete and return by April 15, 2010. You must notify SEA of
any medical concerns or issues that occur prior to sailing.

SSV Corwith Cramer, Robert C. Seamans, are ocean going vessels which require the participation of all aboard in
order to operate. Many operations involve physical activity which in some cases may be demanding. The vessels
spend much of their time far from medical facilities and out of range of most means of medical evacuation. It is
essential that you inform us immediately of any condition which may affect your physical or mental abilities, or
which might require attention while you are on the vessel, for your own safety and that of your shipmates. In most
instances, given enough lead time, the ship's Medical Officer can usually contact your physician and ensure that
the ship is prepared for any special measures which your particular case might require.) However, SEA must reserve
the right at any time to decline participation to anyone with medical or physical problems which could create a
potentially dangerous situation at sea.
