IRSA Summary of Activities to December 2015

IRSA Summary of Activities to December 2015

Following is a broad outline of the 2015 activities of the various IRSA committees along with the results of the decisions made by the Executive Committee. The method of meeting and decision making within the IRSA is evolving. The Executive is, in essence, in meeting all year now on the Forum with discussion and voting on the matters brought before it completed at that time rather than wait for a major meeting for ratification. It is a seamless and efficient method of getting to decisions quickly to support the members and also the various very active committees within the IRSA.

2015 has been a varied and busy year. Some of the highlights include:

  • The new IRSA Website and Forum went live.
  • Approving the formation of International Class Committees for Marblehead, 10R and International A.
  • Approving the combined 2016 Marblehead and 10R Worlds for Lake Garda, Italy. Preparations are well advanced.
  • Racing Committee: App E update submitted to the ISAF for the 2017-20 Rules.
  • Technical Committee: Updating of the Marblehead, 10R and International A Class Rules to final draft forms. Currently with the DNMs for comment.
  • Racing Committee: Case Book published and working party being set up to manage it in the future.
  • New IRSA logo approved.
  • The 2016 General Assembly planning and process is underway.
