It was then staged for each edition of the Games with the exception of those in St Louis in 1904. Women competed in the mixed sailing events as of 1900. Since the Games of the XXIV Olympiad in Seoul in 1988, some events have been reserved only for them. KEY STAGES Entry 1894: At the Paris Congress held in June, the desire was expressed for nautical sports (rowing, sailing and swimming) to be on the Olympic programme. Windsurfing 1980: At the 83rd IOC Session held in July and August in Moscow, it was decided to add a mixed windsurfing event (windglider) to the programme of the Games of the XXIII Olympiad in Los Angeles in 1984. Women’s 1984: At the IOC Executive Board meeting held in July and August in Los inclusion Angeles, it was decided to add the 470 dinghy event for women to the programme of the Games in Seoul in 1988.

  • Portsmouth Number List 2016
    Portsmouth Number List 2016 The RYA Portsmouth Yardstick Scheme is provided to enable clubs to allow boats of different classes to race against each other fairly. The RYA actively encourages clubs to adjust handicaps where classes are either under or over performing compared to the number being used. The Portsmouth Yardstick list combines the Portsmouth numbers with class configuration and the total number of races returned to the RYA in the annual return. This additional data has been provided to help clubs achieve the stated aims of the Portsmouth Yardstick system and make adjustments to Portsmouth Numbers where necessary. Clubs using the PN list should be aware that the list is based on the typical performance of each boat across a variety of clubs and locations. Experimental numbers are based on fewer returns and are to be used as a guide for clubs to allocate as a starting number before reviewing and adjusting where necessary. The list of experimental Portsmouth Numbers will be periodically reviewed by the RYA and is based on data received from the PY Online website (www.pys.org.uk). Users of the PY scheme are reminded that all Portsmouth Numbers published by the RYA should be regarded as a guide only. The RYA list is not definitive and clubs should adjust where necessary.

  • Vintage Yachting Games
    De Gonzer 5 1693 HX WERVERSHOOF The Netherlands +31 624218063 V I N T A G E Y A C H T I N G G A M E S [email protected] T HE I NITIATIVE The International Class Organizations of some former Olympic classes agreed to take the initiative to organize every four years a combined event with limited entry. These (former) Olympic classes have something special in common. Together they share a huge part of the International Sailing History, a part that is based upon active sailing on a very high level of competition. Many of these classes still breathe that spirit. The (former) Olympic classes also take a special place in the history of yacht design. They still look spectacular as well as elegant. Whether this is the Europe, Firefly, 49er, Olympic Dinghy (Nurnberg Class), FD, Star, Golondrina (Swallow), Soling, Dragon, 5.5 Metre, 30m2 Skerry Cruiser Class or 12 Metre. T HE O BJECTIVE The Objective of the Vintage Yachting Games is to sail a High Performance Regatta with a limited number of competitors. The competitors should prepare during a longer period of time. This event will also help to keep the combined history of the former Olympic Classes alive. Finally the Vintage Yachting Games will offer an “after-life” for former Olympic candidates and their yachts. T HE S COPE At this moment the Vintage Yachting Games Organization assumes that during the 1st edition (2008) of this event the following classes will be represented: Europe (male, female), Flying Dutchman, Soling, Dragon and the 5.5 Metre classes.
