Re: Redress...

Hi John, it is not MY definition of disabled, it was confirmed by IRSA racing comitee. You cannot decide to retire, it has to be the result of the incident. Change in SI is just applying previous rule. Nothing really new, and clearly more fair than losing a championship because being entangled twice...

Re: Redress...

In last revision of appendix E, a ROW boat can only get redress if he is disabled and then retire, because the damage due to entanglement prevents him to continue the race. It's not possible to get redress if the competitor DECIDES to retire. So in fact you NEVER gets redress, because with IOMs, inc...

Re: 2013 AGM Schedule

Hi Jens, This is not true : 1/ 84 would be a maximum with 4 promoted HMS 5 heats, but we use 6 promoted for smoother racing, so maximum 76. 2/ If Malta or BEL has 2 great sailors, they will get 2 spots, maybe not at first event but at next one, as they will get places based on previous results. And ...

Re: 2013 AGM Schedule

Sounds like a good reason to vote NO No, it's a good reason for NCAs to send their numbers. The main point behind that proposal is to make a World Championship a real one. If we get others NCAs with current rules, we may get only 2 places for all countries attending. And this wouldn't be a world ch...

It's also important to note that if that resolution is validated by AGM, NCA which don't give owners number before AGM will be counted as 0 owners for next event.

Re: IOM Italian Championship 2013

I got news from FRA competitors. All very upset because that event is based on HMS2007 modified by MVI, which means no seeding race, and first heats directly based on Italian ranking. So ALL foreign competitors (12 on entry list) start from C fleet ! Not a very good way to welcome foreign competitor...
