Motion for Life Membership for Gillian & Charlie Horvath

Vote 40 to 1

NO Motions 6th August 2011

Motion 1 7th August 2010 Moved Peter Jackson Seconded Terry McLeod

“That Barrie Heath be given Life Membership for services rendered to the Association”

Vote78 to 0

Motion 2 7th August 2010 Moved Lyn Bradford- Seconded Bruce Milne

“That Alan Scott be given Life Membership for services rendered to the Association”

Vote 80 to 0

Motion 3 7th August 2010 Moved Neil Billsborough Seconded Norm Thompson

“replace the section on windows in sails with the following: “One or two panel of transparent material may be used in the headsail. This panel shall not exceed 0.6 sq. metres in area. One or two panels of transparent material may be used in mainsails to a maximum total of 0.6 sq. metres in area. Transparent panels shall not be placed closer than 150 mm from any edge of the sail”

The possibility of a larger window panel distorting the set of the sail has been noted; however, as windows are optional, this could be the price paid for the benefit of a clearer view to leeward. It would be unfortunate if the class restrictions were seen to contribute to collisions involving TS16’s. Therefore this amendment to the Sail Measurement rule is proposed, strictly in the interest of safety Vote 24 to10

Motion 4 7th August 2010 Moved Neil Billsborough Seconded Norm Thompson

“That for the current rotation a one-off subsidy of $1500.00 per state be made by the National Association for the express purpose of assisting in the hosting of the Australian Championships.”

As fundraising is becoming increasingly difficult in the current economic climate, this is an opportune time to assist states hosting the Australian Championships for the current rotation of states. Vote 68 to4

Motion 1 1st August 2009 Moved Bob Young Seconded Barrie Heath That Section 48(3)(c) of the Constitution be amended to read - “All current members’ certificates shall be renewed annually as membership is renewed. In the event of the sale of a boat, the certificate shall be returned to the Registrar for transfer to the new owner.”

As the Constitution is currently worded it requires our Registrar to reissue all “A” class certificates annually on 1st July. It does not say this only applies to members of the Association. This is clearly impracticable for all “A” class certificates as some were issued many years ago and we have no idea where the boat is or who owns it. Also, we really should not require our Registrar to provide this service to non-members, and in fact he has not done so. This motion is supported by the National Executive and requires a 75% majority Vote 59 to 0

Motion 2 1st August 2009 Moved Bob Young Seconded Barrie Heath

“That in Special Sailing Rule 1(a) the words ‘a current’ replace the word ‘an’ before the words ‘A’ Class certificate”

This motion requires a boat entering a Championship to have been registered by the owner with the Association Registrar for the current season. It prevents boats not on our register suddenly appearing and being entered in Championships. . This motion is supported by the National Executive and requires a 75% majority Vote 58 to 0

Motion 3 1st August 2009 Moved Bob Young Seconded Barrie Heath

“That in Special Sailing Rule 2 the words ‘helmsman’ and ‘skipper’ be replaced by the word ‘helmsperson’”

The current wording of Special Sailing Rule 2 requires the ‘skipper’ to have sailed at least three races under the Special Sailing Rules. While many people may think ‘skipper’ and ‘helmsman’ mean the same thing, this is not necessarily the case. On large boats they are often different people. This rule was originally introduced to prevent people from other classes being imported to sail a boat just for a particular championship series. This motion removes the possibility that the forward hand might claim he is the ‘skipper’ and import a helmsperson just for an Australian championship series. This motion is supported by the National Executive AND only boat owners can vote. Vote 58 to 0

Motion 4 1st August 2009 Moved Bob Young Seconded Barrie Heath

“That Bob Young be given life memberships in return for extraordinary service to the NSW State and Australian Associations” Vote 61to 0

Motion 5 1st August 2009 Moved Jarrod Chaplin Seconded Geoff Potts

Motion 1 2th August 2008 Moved Barrie Heath, Seconded Alan Scott 1) “That the membership classification “Part owners” be removed.

" …Of some 4500 members, there is only one record of a “Part owner,” which was active about 12/15 years ago, so this category is not being used. A “Part owner,” having paid a membership fee, has a voting right on constitutional matters, but no vote in all matters involving alteration to Rule 47 or Rule 48, with the exception of the “Primary [Part] Member..".'

Motion 1 2th August 2008 Moved Barrie Heath, Seconded Alan Scott 2) “That the membership classification “Part owners” be removed.

Motion 2 2th August 2008 Moved Barrie Heath, Seconded Alan Scott 1) “That the membership classification “Joint TS.16 owners,” be removed .

" “Joint TS.16 owner(s)” that they are not receiving the State newsletter… right of the “Joint TS.16 owners” to skipper a boat in a National event, where the rules require that the… Joint TS.16 owner” became the Primary Member with the original “Primary Member” listed a “Joint TS.16 owner”, but no boats listed. … All this would be straightened out and kept clear if the “Joint TS.16 owners” membership was removed, and the “Primary Member” pays a fee and becomes a “Member” and the “Joint TS 16 Owner” pays a fee and becomes a “Non Owner”, (if they wish to do so)r..".' Vote 48 to 2

Motion 4 2th August 2008 Moved Norm Thompson Seconded Charlie Horvath “That Special Measurement Rule 3(c) of Constitution and Rules of the Hartley TS16 Association of Australia be amended to read “Deck fittings for securing forestay and shrouds are optional as to type but must comply with the Official Plans referred to in Rule 16(1)(a) of the Constitution …… That Special Measurement Rule 4(i) of Constitution and Rules of the Hartley TS16 Association of Australia be amended to read “Sheeting arrangements for sails are left to the owner’s discretion””

" “It is considered that the strength and suitability of these items are matters for the boat builder, not the measurer, and that requiring the measurer to pass judgement on these matters, as the current Special Measurement Rules do, puts an extra and unnecessary responsibility upon him or her. There are many other parts of the boat where the boat builder must make decisions about strength and suitability which are not subject to check by the measurer and it does not seem reasonable to single out these particular items for that attention.

Motion 1 Special Resolution 4th August 2007 Moved Robert Young, Seconded Alan Scott “That Special Sailing Rule 3 in the Constitution and Rules of the Hartley Trailer Sailer 16 Association of Australia be deleted.” " …However it does not seem logical to prohibit the wearing of a PFD which is approved by YA and meets stricter regulations than a PFD2… This would achieve the objective of allowing PFD1s to be worn, ..".' Vote 57 to 1

Motion 3 4th August 2007 Moved Barrie Heath, Seconded Alan Scott “I would like to nominate Norm Thompson for Life Membership of the Association at the next AGM. " ….

He has also been on the National committee since it came to NSW in 2000 taking up the position of National Measurer in June 2002 when Bob Knights died, now being there for 5 years., ..".' Vote 62 to 0

Motion 1 Special Resolution 5th August 2006 Moved Robert Young, Seconded Alan Scott That the current words in Section 31.1(a) of the Constitution be replaced by "it is passed by a majority which comprises at least three-quarters of such members of the association as, being entitled under these rules so to do, vote in person or by proxy at a general meeting of which at least 21 days’ written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution was given in accordance with these rules, or".'
