Sailing forward
With our midyear meeting just around the corner, the organisation and committees have been working tirelessly on developing a solid decision platform to provide our Council with the best guidance and advice. I would like to express my gratitude in advance to all of you for your contribution. In addition, I would like to provide an update regarding the one-design, double-handed Offshore World Championships. The tender has been launched and in addition we will be announcing in the coming weeks the tender for the one design Keelboat World Championships. We are making progress and I am pleased to see the strong development of new events in this area with both events due to commence in 2019. Furthermore, the World Sailing Strategy Plan is now ready to be introduced at the midyear meeting. The plan has been formulated based on the survey conducted at the beginning of 2017 and from the results presented at the midyear meeting from May last year. I strongly believe that the Strategy Plan will give our sport guidance in regards to direction and priorities for World Sailing as a whole.
