information : history
In its first two editions the event was reserved to the Flying Dutchman class, a class with Olympic status until 1992. The following edition already opened the participation to the Finn, 470 men and women classes.
click on images to enlarge It was in 1986 when the event was definitively opened to the participation of all Olympic classes and became part of the Eurolymp circuit. During these more then 25 years the Christmas Race has witnessed the Olympic preparation of a large number of sailors of different nationalities and many Federations have chosen it as an Olympic trial event to decide the members of their Olympic teams. We have lived seven Olympic preparations. Most Olympic medal winners, World and European champions participated or have participated at one of the editions of the Christmas Race. The Christmas Race has closely experienced the evolution of Olympic sailing throughout these 26 years, both in the development of equipment, building and technique of each of the Olympic disciplines, as well as in the different changes ocurred in the competition: course formats, starts, group racing, results and the different changes of Olympic disciplines. The event has always tried to adapt, as fast as possible, to the new classes and competition systems. Being the first event of the Circuit after the ISAF Annual Conference in November, the Christmas Race puts into practice, for the first time, the decisions affecting the Olympic classes, becoming the starting point of each new Olympic cycle.

for the latest headlines. A History of Hamble Village History
Looking downriver from the Foreshore Car Park towards the mouth of the river the low brick building at the southern end of the Parish Dinghy Park is the present clubhouse of Hamble River Sailing Club As the oldest surviving sailing club in the village Hamble River Sailing Club was originally founded in August 1919 by a group of seven Hamble men "to encourage the sport of small boat sailing and racing". They were determined that the club would provide sailing opportunities for all those who lived and worked in all the Parishes along the banks of the Hamble River. This included the many men who worked on the yachts as paid hands and were considered as professional sailors and therefore excluded from participating in many sailing races.
No present day profile of the club can be written without reference to the events and personalities of the past 78 years. At first there was no clubhouse just a wooden storage hut in the kitchen garden of the "Bugle Inn". 'Apres-sail' was held in Quay House, home of founder member Gregory Robinson, and now part of the Royal Southern Y. C. clubhouse. Races were held throughout each summer on Wednesday evenings and Saturday afternoons, a tradition that is still kept today. The first handicap system recorded shows the winners were given a time penalty in their next race. Prize money was awarded and this was deducted from the race fees at the end of the season. The most successful helmsmen sometimes ended the season a pound or two richer.

Australian women poised to take sailing gold

KERRY O'BRIEN: Water polo's not the first time women have had to fight for Olympic inclusion.
Despite a hundred-year tradition, women sailors had to wait until Seoul in 1988 and tonight two Australian women are poised to take Olympic gold.
Belinda Stowell and Jenny Armstrong are just one race away from clinching victory in the 470 class and a special place in Australian Olympic history.
It will be doubly sweet if the men's 470 team can replicate their performance to end a 30-year drought in men's sailing.
Michael Troy reports.
JENNY ARMSTRONG, 470 SAILOR: The 470s are a lot more sturdy, so we can go offshore and we sail in big winds, big waves as well as light winds and flat water, so across the range.
But most of it comes down to us and our skills and our teamwork together and keeping your head cool at the right critical moment.
MICHAEL TROY: And that's exactly what Australia's two best female sailors have been doing.
With just one race to go, Jenny Armstrong and Belinda Stowell are in with a big chance to make Olympic history for Australia. If you win a medal, do you think it's going to really boost the image of sailing?

Double gold for Australian sailors
Australia enjoyed its most successful Olympic regatta ever at Sydney. Tornado sailors Darren Bundock and John Forbes won silver in their class while sailboarders Lars Kleppich and Jessica Crisp finished fourth and fifth respectively.
But the best result by far was scoring two golds on the same day in the 470 class. Jenny Armstrong and Belinda Stowell were the victorious women's pairing, while Tom King and Mark Turnbull took gold in the men's event.
All events run from Sunday 17 September to Saturday 30 September.

Credit: MIT Museum The MIT Sailing Pavilion, the first facility constructed for college sailing, was built in 1935. It is now known as the birthplace of today's collegiate sailing. A number of colleges had sailing clubs in the late 1800s; however, these were primarily social clubs consisting of private boat owners. The first ten Dinghy Championships of the newly organized Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association ( ICYRA ) were sailed on the Charles River in MIT's fleet of cat-rigged, wooden Tech Dinghies. To this day, MIT continues to host more college regattas than any other site in the country. In the fall of 1994 it hosted the ICYRA 's first annual Women's Singlehanded Championship in Laser Radials. MIT provides (without charge) practice time for local colleges and high schools who do not have boats and sites of their own. Currently, the sailing teams from the following colleges and universities practice and race from the MIT Pavilion: Brandeis Northeastern , and Wellesley College MIT has over 100 sailboats in its fleet . The Tech Dinghies (designed by the MIT Naval Architecture Department Aleida Built in 1935 and later named after one of its founders, Jack Wood, the MIT Sailing Pavilion continues to hold more collegiate regattas than any other site in the US.

ON YOUR MARKS ... GET SET ... MORE MEDALS
Two sailing golds in the Games' last days brings the British total to eight. Ben Anslie's medal in the open Laser class, confirmed after rival Robert Scheidt of Brazil complained he had used aggressive tactics, let him join Shirley Robertson (first place in the women's Europe class) among Team GB's pantheon of modern heroes. Sydney is now Britain's best Olympics since the 1924 'Chariots of Fire' Games when the country laid claim to nine golds and its men were real men who liked a lie-in so they never ran on Sundays. Plain sailing could still set Britain on a course to equal that distant year if currently first placed Iain Percy in the Finns keeps his jib up. And there's a chance of beating it if Ian Walker and Mark Covell in the Stars make the final day of the regatta a happy one for Team GB.

http://www.cork.org/history.html
In August of each year, sailors of all ages come from countries around the world to participate in one of international yacht racing's premier events: CORK- the Canadian Olympic-training Regatta, Kingston. CORK is a special opportunity for participants, organizers and sponsors to enjoy all that is best about the sport of sailing.
CORK was started over a quarter century ago by a group of Canadian Olympic sailors who recognized that the City of Kingston, Canada, had ideal sailing conditions and a central North American location. It was (and is) the perfect venue for an annual world class sailing event.
The first CORK regatta was a small multi-class sailing event held on the waters off Kingston in August of 1969. Today CORK has grown into a two-week long event, hosting over 20 classes and drawing more that 1,000 sailboats, more than 2,000 competitors and coaches from many countries as well as over 10,000 tourists and site-seers.
The CORK venue spans the City of Kingston, from its headquarters at Portsmouth Olympic Harbour (the site of the 1976 Olympic Sailing events), across Richardson Beach (located along the city's waterfront), to the MacDonald Confederation Basin (near Kingston's vital downtown core). CORK's Racing takes place on six courses which extend from the St. Lawrence River well out into Lake Ontario and cover a geographic area of over twenty square miles.
Year after year, CORK continues to bring together sailors, volunteers, tourists, 'Friends of CORK', sponsors' representatives and the media - for two exciting weeks in the latter part of August. Join us in Kingston!

The History of Snowfer
The Beginning of Snowfer
S ince Windsurfing was invented around 1960. There was a great challenge and demand all-around the world to create a product that can simulate Windsurfing on snow and ice Charles Chepregi , inventor and designer of Snowfer achieved that challenge. His concept is not just the best in the world but the only one that can satisfy all the demands as a sport. He started windsurfing in 1985, loved the sport so much that at the end of the season, he tried to find a product that can sail on snow and ice using the same windsurfing rig as on water . There was nothing available on the market to buy so he decided to build his own. His creation of the Snowfer originated by combining the two words of snow board and a windsur fer thus the name Snowfer became and the sport of Snowfering came to be by uniting the excitement of windsurfing and the thrills of snowboarding. Charles sailing on the first Snowfer prototype in 1985
So the history has begun
The research and development of Snowfer started in 1985. He filed a patent protection in Canada in 1989 and 1990 in USA and Europe. All applications were approved by 1994. The first production board was introduced in 1991, almost immediately he went to the

Sandy Bay Sailing Club
About Us
News Contact Details Committee Members ... Home History of the Club The Sandy Bay Sailing Club started life on 1 March 1948 as the Sandy Bay Dinghy Club operating from Red Chapel Beach, half a kilometre or so towards the city from our current location. The Club moved to Long Point and the current clubhouse in the early 1960s. The clubhouse has been extensively modified since then to provide comprehensive facilities for its 1990s members. Long Point provides the Club with a unique environment where races can be conducted in clear view of the clubhouse and the beach while at the same time offering fair courses in all but the most demanding conditions. Over the years the Club has catered for a wide range of yacht classes. By far the most enduring is the International Cadet. The Cadet, crewed by two junior (U/18) sailors, is supported as a training class by the single-handed International Optimist. Both of these boats are ideal trainers and both are supported by full international status, with the World Championship as the pinnacle in each. The International Cadet World Championship has been conducted at Sandy Bay twice in the Club's history; the first in 1969-70 and the second in 1994-5. Over a dozen countries sent teams of up to 7 boats to contest this keenly fought series in typically-testing Derwent River conditions.
