As Mirrors are an International Class, the class rules are published by World Sailing (ex-IYRU, ex-ISAF). You can download a copy from the Mirror Class microsite on the World Sailing website.
To ensure you get the latest version, you need to navigate as follows
- Go to the Mirror Class microsite on the World Sailing website.
- Click the "Technical" tab
- A list of documents appears. Click "Class Rules - Mirror"
- Another page opens with links to all recent revisions of the class rules. Click the lastest copy of the class rules which will be at the top of the "Revision History" list and will have a name with format MIRYYYYCRDDMMYY.pdf
World Sailing also issue, with every new revsion of the class rules, an "amendment sheet" with name format MIRYYYYCRCDDMMYY.pdf which summaries the rule changes in the latest revision. This is useful if you just want to know what has changed.
Part of the Class Rules is the Wooden Boat Specification which details information and rules for Licensed kit manufacturers and wooden boat builders. This is also available on the World Sailing Website
- Go to the Mirror Class microsite on the World Sailing website.
- Click the "Technical" tab
- A list of documents appears. Click "Wooden Specifications"

As far as possible we use the World Sailing Equipment Rules Of Sailing (ERS) for definitions. Where a term appears in bold type within the class rules, it is being used in the sense defined in the ERS. You can download the latest version from the Equipment Rules Of Sailing page on the World Sailing website.
A set of Measurement Forms should be supplied with all new boats & each kit, and it should be signed (on page 9) by the (GRP) boat builder or kit manufacturer to say the boat or kit has been produced in compliance with the plans, rules & specification.
Otherwise they can be downloaded as above:
- Go to the Mirror Class microsite on the World Sailing website.
- Click the "Technical" tab
- A list of documents appears. Click "Measurement Form - Mirror Class"
- Another page opens with links to all recent revisions of the Measurement forms, choose the Latest Document Revision at the top of the "Revision History" list.
In the case of new (GRP) boats & kits supplied without forms, you can fill in the plaque (sail) number and send page 9 of the Hull Measurement form to the builder/kit manufacturer, and ask them to sign, and return to you.
