One day regatta in Holland - february 4 2007

I note that Dutch National Authority is hosting a one-day regatta on February 4th near Gouda. There is a posting on the German RC Network discussion forum here...

...just thought others in neighbouring countries may be interested.

One Day Regatta in Holland

Post by Aad » 25 Jan 2007, 22:34

The Dutch IOM Class is fairly new. It is a very enthousiastic group of people. Several of them are building their own boats from kits and/or wood. They have their own website under DIOMCA. Although their website is in Dutch, most of their members speak and can communicate in English. It is well-worth your time to follow the growth of the IOM class in Holland.

This will be the first official IOM event in Holland. Only a few Dutch boats are ready, but we will have support from our German neighbours who have entered 8 boats. So far we have 12 entries.

Better late than never. :lol:

Our friends in the Neatherlands put on a great race with 16 boats turning up for a regatta in mostly light airs. A good time was had by every one and the sailing was competative but fair and fun at all times.

Thanks for the good organisation and look forward to racing in NL again soon.
