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 Unsuccessful motions are not recorded here. Page 5 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.

  • Sept 2010 LOG.Cwk
    Volume 30 No. 4 September 2010 Mary Nye Meyers,Editor The mission of IOBG is to recognize past commodores of the international yachting community and unite them in order to promote the highest ideals of yachting, and preserve its customs and traditions through social, educational and humanitarian programs. In an earlier report I wrote it was my hope our critically motivated internal analysis might be quickly and amicably resolved, so that more of our time could be spent on boating and water related activities. Our recent membership vote of approval of a number of revised and/or rewritten By-laws should enhance our opportunity to become more deeply involved in the many issues facing the boating community. As if on cue, I have recently received two phone calls asking the extent of IOBG's knowledge and involvement in certain water related issues. For example, one caller asked the extent of our knowledge concerning the established governmental water pollution standards of Puget Sound in Washington State. A second caller asked if any governmental standards have been established concerning oil contamination in the Gulf of Mexico. In fielding these two questions, it became crystal clear to me how little IOBG was involved in any fashion with either governmental or political machinations regarding water or boating issues. To live up to our Mission Statement, we should make an effort to the best of our ability, to alert members to these issues. Hopefully we will have an informative article in each issue of the LOG Newsletter, which would be interesting, as well as educational.

    Port River Sailing Club Incorporated (Member, Yachting South Australia) 2016—2017 Year Book George Robertson Drive, Largs North, 5016 PO Box 192, Port Adelaide, SA, 5015 Telephone 8449 1818 Email [email protected] Website www.portriver.yachting.org.au Welcome to the Port River Sailing Club for 2016-17 season. Last season was one of consolidation, we managed to reduce some of our major expenses through good planning and others by just plain nagging. Yachting South Australia reduced their fees by 50% which was by far our greatest reduction of any one item. Last year we changed insurance companies which has saved us some more money. Our member ship has stayed pretty much the same. We see the 2016-17 year as a growth year. The club needs to attract new members. There are some exciting things close on the horizon. Watch this space. The Boating Industry of Australia will be their annual on water boat show right in our back yard on the 15 th and 16 th of October . It will be a great way to show off the safe waters we sail in. School Team sailing is back and bigger than ever. There are more schools competing and more teams in each school. For those who are not familiar with the term Team Sailing please refer to Note 3 in this program. Our involvement with our bigger boat mates over the fence will continue to grow. On Wednesday nights during daylight saving we open our club for the PASC to run their twilight racing. These are an exciting spectacle and all members are invited to watch the racing which is usually between the North Arm and the grain berth.
