  • INTERNATIONAL MONOHULL OPEN CLASSES ASSOCIATION IMOCA OPEN 60 Ft CLASS RULES 2002 OPEN 50 Ft CLASS RULES 2002
    25 INTERNATIONAL MONOHULL OPEN CLASSES ASSOCIATION IMOCA OPEN 60 Ft CLASS RULES 2002 OPEN 50 Ft CLASS RULES 2002 The Monohull Open 50/60 feet Class was registered as “Recognised Class” by the INTERNATIONAL SAILING FEDERATION (ISAF) in 1998. In 2001, the Open 60’ Class has been registered as “International Class” by the INTERNATIONAL SAILING FEDERATION (ISAF), and the Open 50’ Class has been registered as “Recognised Class”. The aim of these rules is to establish the restrictions, the exclusions and obligations which shall be respected by Open 50/60 foot Monohulls when taking part in offshore ocean sailing competitions. This is to ensure that the elements relative to safety are of an acceptable standard level, and at least identical for all competitors. However, these rules are evolutive, and must be developed in such a way to encourage technological speed innovations as well as research and application for new techniques in matter of safety at sea. Nota : Most of articles of the Class Rules are the same for the both Classes Open 60’ an Open 50’. When a rule is specific to Open 50’, it is specified in a separate article, printed in italics.
