Equipment check

In joint coordination with ICA, the OC decided to do the following procedure for the measurement for/at the Europeans:

Sails: All sails will be controlled.
Lifejackets: We will check the PFDs and so we inform everyone that only regular certified PFDs will be allowed.
Corrector weights: These will be checked randomly!
Caution: Corrector weights have to comply with the measurement certificate.
It is not allowed, that boats have less corrector weight(s) mounted as mentioned in the measurement certificate, even the boat is within the weight limits.
Mast/Boom: Random checks will be applied for mast and boom.
Rudder/Centerboard: The thickness and weight of the rudder and centerboard will be checked. Shape has been measured very often in recent years.
Weights: Random checks will be defined in advance of the event. At least 1 boat per nation will be checked.

Checks during the event will be of course possible at any time.

Sailing season 2022 at UYCAs has begun!

In mid-May we had the Star-Class Fleet-Championship with the famous "Wind of Roses” (Rosenwind; see visitors informatiuon - venue) and last weekend the Moth-Class came to the club for their Austrian National Championship. The sailors of this ultra-fast, foiling one-man class obviously felt at home on Lake Attersee in a sometimes treacherous and tricky westerly wind of up to 17-18 knots.
THE highlight of 2022 will be the European Championship Contender in August - we look forward to seeing you!
So far we already have entries from 7 nations!
Who will be the next?
