The Admin Handbook will soon be updated to include these changes.


Throughout the championship there were discussions about the ISAF Advertising Code and what will be required at the 2012 AGM so that the class complies with the new code. Proposals will be emailed to members in February 2012. Please note that no changes were made in 2011 to class rule 2.8 and so no competitor advertising permitted on the hull or sail (Category A) prevails.
