Twin M and 10R World Championships 2020
The bid for the 2020 Twin World Championships has been awarded to West Kirby, Great Britain..
Both nominations were very strong and had a variety of factors about them. As a result it has taken some time to arrive at a decision.
The IRSA would like to thank the Castiglione del Lago team and the Italian national member for their time and effort with this bid. It is a good sign for our sport and please be encouraged to nominate again in the future.
Revision of the 10R Class Rules
October 2018 revision of the 10R Class Rules has been done based on the DNM for GBR submission for a formal proposal to change J.1 (a) of the class rules to clear up the issue with swing rigs not complying with the class rules unless both (or all) the headsail spars are included in the rig area measurement.
