  • Historical Portsmouth Number List
    Historical Portsmouth Number List 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 average performance of each boat across a variety of clubs and locations. The numbers in the PN list may not reflect the peak performance of each boat. Historical numbers are listed below and have been collated from the RYA's archive of PN lists. It should be remembered that the Portsmouth Yardstick number list has been through a number of changes and the numbers listed below have had conversion factors applied where needed. It should also be remembered that whilst all efforts are taken for PN's not to drift, relative performance of older boats may be quite different to modern classes. The numbers are given as a starting point to help clubs arrive at a fair number and if these numbers are used then they should be reviewed regularly. Users of the PY scheme are reminded that all Portsmouth Numbers published by the RYA should be regarded as a guide only.

  • GO SAIL. SEE YOU in GREECE ARYA Programs
    GO SAIL. SEE YOU IN GREECE ARYA Programs ARGONAUTICAL PARK The First ARYA Training Center Afissos / Pelion Discover the Beauty of Afissos Built in an amphitheatre style, Afissos is a coastal village and is one of the prettiest in the whole Pelion region. It is picturesque and alive with activity and colour along its harbour seafront with many tavernas and bars. In the shady village square wa- ter springs from the same fountain which, according to the legend, the Argonauts stocked up with water before their epic adventure to find the Golden Fleece. Afissos is surrounded by three wonderful beaches of Kalifteri, Lagoudi and beauti- ful Abovos. Surrounded by the beauty of the Pagasitikos Gulf and Mount Pelion (said to be the summer residence of the Gods of Olympus) Afissos is an ideal base for trips to the Mount Pelion Villages … you can see why people don’t just come here for the sailing. IFDS International ‘Challenger’ Multihull Championship 2007 The Argonautical Park in cooperation with the Maistrali Sailing Club organised with great success the IFDS IMC 2007 multi hull championship. More than 250 volunteers from all over the world took part in the largest Sailability event in Greece, second only to the Paralympics of Athens 2004. 14.6.2007 Letter of Ian Harrison – VP of IFDS to the president of the organizing committee of IFDS IMC 2007 Mr. Sotirios Giamakos. Dear Sotirios I cannot express in words my appreciation for the wonderful job you did in preparation and during the regatta. I feel it was little short of miraculous.

    THE HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL 14 Tommy Vaughan’s epic work documenting the development of the class from various scattered types of14 foot small boat in the 1800’s to the international race machine we know today INTRODUCTION 2 THE HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL FOURTEEN 3 EARLY DAYS - PRE 1923 4 A NATIONAL CLASS, 1923 - 1928 7 THE UFFA FOX ERA, 1928-1939 8 THE YEARS OF CHALLENGE, 1946 - 1955 17 THE YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT, 1955 - 1963 22 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS, 1964 - 1970 29 THE YEARS OF DISCORD 1971 – 1980 37 THE YEARS OF CHANGE 1980 – 1989 41 MERGER:A GLOBAL 14 FOOT CLASS: 1990-2003 47 INTRODUCTION The story of the International Fourteen is never ending because so much continues to come to light from its past whilst, being a development class, there is always something new in hull or rig to record. Change in fact, is what Fourteening is, and always will be, about. As a concept it is not stuck in time. The class is fortunate in having a history that goes back to the very origins of racing small open boats and a future, that, within its chosen constraints, is as limitless as human endeavour and ingenuity can devise. It has been my pleasure to try and record the highlights of the International Fourteen. This is the fourth edition , first on the internet.. It is hard to believe that it is over forty years since I was first volunteered for the job. This has been the hardest version to pull together. For the simple reason that for the past few years my role has been of an interested , but distant, supporter rather than that of an enthusiastic, if indifferent, performer.

  • Information About the LYS-System
    LYS – Nordic Handicapping System - 2003 Information about the LYS-system The purpose of the LYS system is to give yachts of different classes the option to race against each other. The LYS number indicates what the “best” yacht of each respective kind is able to perform to. It is based on race statistics, which is a comparison between different types of yachts and experience. The table is split in four groups, keelboats, sport boats, dinghies and multihull yachts. The corrected times are normally calculated by simply multiplying the elapsed times by their respective LYS-figures. The LYS-values are applied similarly in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark.
