Worlds Waiting List

The worlds are limited to 100 places by the A-Class Championships Rules, and currently we are sold out.
BUT - there probably will be some "drop outs" or "no shows", and for that case we have established a waiting list, from where we will substitute open places.
This is a "first in first served" queue, so don't hesitate to get on the list if you are interested in a place in case someone can't come.
Send a mail to Thomas Paasch: thomas(at)paasch.dk with your Country, Name and contact information to get on the list.

A-class sailing is beginning to get quite popular in Holland. It’s probably too early to state that the introduction of the DNA is causing a hype but fact is that it gives the class a certain buzz. In Hellevoetsluis there were 48 boats from 6 countries at the start.
Conditions were very windy, up to 24 knots on the last day, and flat water behind the dike which separates the lake Haringvliet from the North Sea.
