Watch out 2 Olympic Sailing Submitted by Jerry Lewis SYDNEY -- As sailors scurried about the Rushcutter's Bay marina de-rigging boats and packing their gear, it was time to assess what had transpired over the past two weeks. Great Britain topped the standings with five medals, including three gold and two silvers. It was the Brits biggest gold medal haul since they won four in 1908. In all, 15 countries shared the 33 medals up for grabs. Australia and the U.S. tied for second with four medals apiece. There were plenty of firsts during the regatta. Austria earned its first-ever sailing gold medal when Roman Hagara and Hans Steinacher won the Tornado class.

Two other crews – Ian Walker and Mark Covell (Star), and Ian Barker and Simon Hiscocks (49er) -- won silver medals. Australia won two golds in the double- handed 470 classes, with Jenny Armstrong and Belinda Stowell in the women's division and Tom King and Mark Turnbull in the men's. The host nation also won one silver with Darren Bundock and John Forbes (Tornado), and one bronze with Michael Blackburn (Laser). The Aussie team was helped by a substantial increase in government funding across all sports. Later that weekend, they also got to be a part of Kent's maiden voyage on the Blue Dolphin Snorkel Trip.

  • 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.
