  • Six Metre News From: Australia
    THE CLASSIC SIX METRE NEWSLETTER 1907 - 2013 Number 15 Founded in 1993 by Tim Street April 2013 www.classicsixmetrenews.org Editors: Thilo Durach & others [email protected] Editorial Dear Friends First of all I have to apologize. Already a year ago, Tim Street and Basil Carmody asked me to take over the Classic Six Metre Newsletter. With my background in publishing I was happy to face that challenge, that was very well done the last years. As you may remember, I started last summer with a little email, asking for information about your boats, restoring projects, your area and some materi- al arrived. But, I was still not finished with Carmela, a Gustav Estlander Design from 1924 which a friend of mine, Walter Kuhlmann, and me worked on for about three years at that point. Our great aim was to appear at the European Championships in Nynäshamn last year. We worked hard, and there was no time left for the Newsletter. Finally we made it with Carmela to the regatta, but after that event, I was burned out a bit, about the Six Metre subject. It took me some time, but now here is the number 15 of the Classic Six Metre Newsletter. I am convinced about this classic newsletter distribution, but I also recognize the advantages of other media. Douglas Reincke and others, established a Six Metre information platform in the social net- work Facebook. Understanding all the concerns about Facebook, it is a wonderful tool to transport and publish information and pictures just in a second.
