DECEMBER 2005

  • Message from the Secretary!

Dear all,
As most of you know, this is my final day as international secretary.
As from tomorrow I hand over to Peter Roos.

Peter's contact details

I will be finishing off a few projects, ie the current ballot, a few outstanding new boat registrations and also the reprinting of the class measurement rules, but all new applications for boat registrations, replacement certificates etc should now be made to Peter.

I have been Secretary for the last 8 years and have greatly enjoyed the comradeship of all the five-o sailors around the world that I have had contact with over that time. I would also like to thank the National Secretaries in particular, because without your help, my job would be just about impossible.

Now that I can focus on only sailing, I hope to see a few of you on the water!

A happy new year to you all

Chris Thorne

 

  • Message from the President!

Dear all

Thank you for a good 505 year.

2005 was the year we had the biggest Worlds ever (until now!). It was the year where we saw excellent sailing and good sportsmanship from all sailors in the class. It was the year where we showed the sailing world that we are alive and kicking.

In 2006 I want you all to focus on the international events.

The most important is Worlds 2006!.

Hayling Island are on track organizing the 2006 Worlds, we now have more than 70 pre entries from 13 nations, and that includes nations as Ireland, Italy and Poland, and the biggest number of french and UK teams for years!. If you haven´t registrated yet, you can do it here.

And for all the European teams. I want you to have the new EuroCup/European championship as the second most important priority.

The Eurocup now has fewer but bigger regattas, prizes, parties, sponsors and publicity.

You can check the dates and info on the new Eurocup site here.

http://www.505eurocup.org

Last year we hade 134 teams on the ranking list. I want that number to grow and be the biggest European 2 man class ranking list!.

So book your calender with the best international 505 regattas now.

I wish you all a nice x-mas and a fun new years eve and hope to se you all in 2006.

Best regards, Tom Bojland
President - International 505 Class Yacht Racing Association

PS. Regatta in Denmark dec. 26.

  • Årets nykomlingar!   Magnus Nilsson &  Andreas Carlsson

Magnus Nilsson Andreas Carlsson

At this time a composer makes fine music on it.  We cutted down more than 18 hours great pictures from the worlds to a 5 minute trailer and a long term over 90 minutes about all the 9 races. A lot of people (specials thanks to the producer Gerrit) worked for free or very low budget, so they serve paying customers first. So I'm sorry, but we need a little more time to finish, duplicate and send it out.

I think at the end of November everybody will get his DVD.  Over all the DVD will be great. Thanks for Your patience --/ Wolfgang Stueckl

SEPTEMBER

Dear Worlds competitors (and non-competitors), 
about the worlds the German 505 class produces a great DVD. 
The DVD will contain: 
- a short image track (about 5 minutes) 
- a long documentation about all the 9 races 
- a lot of photos we can get for the DVD 
You can order the DVD for 15 Euros incl. transport costs. 
Please send the money to: 
WM account Jürgen Waldheim 
SWIFT CODE: BEVODEBB 
IBAN: DE 12 10090000 
Account Nr.: 5468947023 
and the adress per E-Mail to me. 
If we have the money we will send You the DVD immediately, but not before October. 
Best Regards 
Wolfgang Stueckl

Dear all,

Here is the agenda for the AGM. Please forward, circulate or otherwise bring this to the attention of all your members.

I draw your attention to two points.

First I would like to stand down as secretary. I have done the job for eight years and for the good of the class there needs to be change. However, we are still looking for a nomination. In fact we a re looking for volunteers for all three posts up for election. If anyone wants to know more about what is involved, please contact me.

Second, we do not yet have any nominations for the 2008 Worlds. Please let me know asap if your association is likely to be coming forward with a proposal. On the "normal" rotation, it is due be in Europe, but if there is a strong bid from elsewhere that should not be seen as an obstacle. 

The accounts are nearly complete and will be circulated soon.

Chris Thorne, International Secretary
International 505 Class Yacht Racing Association

    JANUARI

    Hej Ebbe,

    Reine Andersson, en av 5o5 klassens gamla mästergastar, har gått bort 59år gammal. 
    Jag har idag varit på begravningen och träffade många gamla goda gubbar från 5o5 tiden. Det snackades en hel del om gamla tider och även om VM i sommar i Tyskland. Det har tydligen pågått en kampanj för att bjuda in gamla 5o5 mästare för någon typ av racing. Intresset verkade klart stort från ett antal gubbar att åka ner och deltaga. Kanske mer som social grej än att försöka vinna seglingar. Vet du vad som gäller för dessa special inbjudningar? vilka datum gäller etc. Går det att chartra båtar? Hör av dig med den information som du har så kan vi sprida den till en del gubbar här nere och testa intresset.

    Hälsa alla som kände Reine att han var samma goa gubbe ända in i det sista!
