SACA - SWISS A-CLASS ASSOCIATION

Dear petitioner

You may have seen the bad news in the press that last week the IOC decided not to grant sailing an 11th medal for the 2012 Olympic Games. This means that there will be no catamaran in the 2012 Olympic Games.

The ISAF press release can be found at http://www.sailing.org/london2012/29214.php

Despite this result we would like to thank you for your support over the last couple of years.

Following this bad news UKCRA have sent the following open letter to Goran Peterson at ISAF:

Summary

The ISAF Conference in May brought our campaign closer to its objective of securing appropriate representation for multihulls at the highest level of sport. It now seems highly likely that, if IOC grants sailing an 11th medal, it will be for an Open Multihull Event, raced in Tornados, as in China, and that the chances of a favourable IOC decision are good, but that may not be known till October.

Dear Presidents,

please, find herewith enclosed the final result of the ballot on the proposal of amendments of the ISAF A-Division Catamaran Rules, better known as "hydrofoils rule".

Votes have been collected by the Returning Officer, Pieterjan Dwarshuis. I’ve matched all data with the members lists sent by all National Associations.

La Leman Cata’Cup de Morges a eu lieu les 20 et 21 juin. Voici l'avis de course et les résultats.

Bericht von Michael Tobler (version française plus bas) :

Eines Vorweg: alle Befürworter von krummen Schwertern segelten mit geraden und alle Gegner mit krummen..., was lief hier falsch?

Trentacinque iscritti provenienti da ogni parte d’Italia (Sicilia, Roma, Emilia Romagna, Toscana e Nord Italia), tre svizzeri ed un germanico a dimostrazione che il “canalone” del Lago Maggiore è meta ambita e conosciuta da molti velisti. L’appuntamento di Maccagno è uno di quelli da non mancare per la bellezza del suo campo di regata e perché è una di quelle regate dove vanno tutti: quindi interessante da un punto di vista agonistico.
