TopCAT was specifically designed for the morphological analysis of seacliffs and 20 beaches but may be applied to other elongated features which experience topographical change, 21 such as stream beds, river banks, coastal dunes, etc. To demonstrate the capabilities of TopCAT 22 two case studies are presented herein. The first case examines coastal cliff retreat for a 500 m 23 section in Del Mar, California and shows that large failures comprised a large portion of the 24 total eroded volume and the average retreat rate does not provide a good estimate of local 25 maximum cliff retreat. The second case investigates the alongshore volumetric beach sand 26 change caused by hurricane Bonnie (1998) for an 85 km section in the Cape Hatteras National 27 Seashore, North Carolina. The results compare well (generally within 6%) with previous 1 28 investigations. These case studies highlight additional information gained through performing a 29 detailed, discretized analysis using TopCAT.

    JUNE 2005 / 2 NEWSINTERNATIONAL EUROPE CLASS UNION LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Just now is a very important period in the Europe Class history. Not being Olympic Class anymore allows us to look for changes in profit of all the Class. I think it is very, very important that the Class moves in the direction the sailors want, and not only in the direction the federations and leaders want. For this reason the Europe Class board had a meeting in March. We succeeded in creating some ideas for the future. These ideas have been Can Pastilla- Trofeo Princesa Sofia – March 05- sent to your national Chairmen. They have been asked, together with Photo: Jorma Heiskanen you sailors, to discuss the results the IECU board recommended, and to discuss other plans for the future. During the European Championship in Helsinki, there will be a meeting where I expect as many national Chairmen as possible to be present, and the IECU board. They will sit together and find out in what directions you sailors want the IECU board to work. I am as usual looking forward to visit the Worlds, Europeans and Youth. I hope you all will have a fantastic sailing period. Best regards. Jan Abrahamsen, IECU President WORKING HARD IN THE UK Given the dramatic decision by ISAF regarding the Europe, it was felt by the UK Class Association that we should have a presence at this year’s Dinghy Show at Alexandra Palace, and show that there is life outside of the Olympics! With 10,000 people passing through the doors we could not miss this opportunity, and indeed the International Europe Class Union helped by lending us their professional display stand, together with bundles of leaflets and information packs.

    Parent/Sailor Manual

    PARENT/SAILOR MANUAL Dear Parents and Sailors, Welcome to the LBYC Summer Sailing Program! Our goal for the summer is to instill a lifelong appreciation for sailing and yacht racing by creating an environment that promotes sportsmanship, safety, and the fun of being on the water. This manual provides valuable information on boat safety, necessary gear, daily events and much more. Please take the time to thoroughly read it with your sailor as it’s very important that rules and expectations are understood by everyone participating in our program. An agreement on the last page must be signed by each parent and sailor prior to the first day of the program. Everyone will be much better prepared for this summer’s activities after reading this manual. If you have any questions or thoughts regarding any of the following information, please don’t hesitate to ask. If your call goes to voicemail during program hours, it means I am assisting another sailor or on the water. Please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. I look forward to sharing a fantastic summer with both new and returning sailors!

  • The International Flying Dutchman Class Book

    The International Flying Dutchman Class Book

    THE INTERNATIONAL FLYING DUTCHMAN CLASS BOOK www.sailfd.org 1 2 Preface and acknowledgements for the “FLYING DUTCHMAN CLASS BOOK” by Alberto Barenghi, IFDCO President The Class Book is a basic and elegant instrument to show and testify the FD history, the Class life and all the people who have contributed to the development and the promotion of the “ultimate sailing dinghy”. Its contents show the development, charm and beauty of FD sailing; with a review of events, trophies, results and the role past champions . Included are the IFDCO Foundation Rules and its byelaws which describe how the structure of the Class operate . Moreover, 2002 was the 50th Anniversary of the FD birth: 50 years of technical deve- lopment, success and fame all over the world and of Class life is a particular event. This new edition of the Class Book is a good chance to celebrate the jubilee, to represent the FD evolution and the future prospects in the third millennium. The Class Book intends to charm and induce us to know and to be involved in the Class life. Please, let me assent to remember and to express my admiration for Conrad Gulcher: if we sail, love FD and enjoyed for more than 50 years, it is because Conrad conceived such a wonderful dinghy and realized his dream, launching FD in 1952. Conrad, looked to the future with an excellent far-sightedness, conceived a “high-perfor- mance dinghy”, which still represents a model of technologic development, fashionable 3 water-line, low minimum hull weight and performance . Conrad ‘s approach to a continuing development of FD, with regard to materials, fitting and rigging evolution, was basic for the FD success.
