CLASS CAPTAIN’S REPORT

Sailors and Friends of the Class – Welcome back after the Summer!

We just finished the Triple-Header of regattas, with the RSYC Regatta, Singapore Regatta and Western Circuit Regatta. The
turnout has been growing and what is most encouraging is that we have had many new sailors join us over the past weeks and months, both as crew and helm. The class is on fire and we are really hoping to see a full house as we prepare for the National Championships on the 14-15/10!

With new owners coming in and new boats on the way to Singapore, grab yours before they run out! This is a perfect opportunity to get prepared ahead of 2025 and the World Championships. We are also very much looking forward to Dubai 2024. So far, Singapore is largest non-UAE country in terms of entries (6 confirmed and 4 more pending as of writing). Boats will be loaded onto containers after Nationals and arrive in Dubai by year end. There is more space! Anyone who is keen to ship or to rent a boat for a campaign – just let us know and we get you sorted!

We continue to grow our strong partnership with SSF and are continuously working on new ways to activate the 8 boat strong SSF fleet – there are always boats available for those keen to rent for an event. If you want someone with experience to come and join you, just reach out.

After a short break, we are looking forward to kicking off the autumn calendar, starting with Club Racing on the 9th of September. See you there!

Your Class Captain,

Magnus
