Election Class Officers:
Class President: Tim Chin (current acting class president)
elected by the ExCom to Class President
Vice President: Phillip Infelise elected by the ExCom to Class Vice President
Other Business:
1. It was noted in Draft A11 that carbon fiber was omitted
from the mainsail section -- ITC to provide a clarification.
2. Request for better definition of "owner" -- ITC to add Q&A section to address
the "between the line" type information.
Note: This is the first time we used the Citrix Webinar
conferencing tool -- the general feeling was that it worked well as a global
conferencing tool and the proceeding was smooth. There was one case of technical
difficulty in getting audio -- we will try to help that member resolve the
problem for future discussions.
Meeting Documents:
- Tim's Presentation (PPT,
PDF)
-
Proposed Class
Rules (rev A11)
-
Proposed Class Constitution (rev A2)
-
Hiptrader's Provisional Sail Rules
- Absentee Ballots
