Several couples withdrew because they couldn’t take the same course. A record! • Very enjoyable Tuesday dinghy trainings, rain didn’t prevent wind to blow • New: to comply with French law, we must ask members living in France and sailing GS to have a French motor license • SU: Torsten introduced the “test card”. Any skipper can sign that a SU key candidate successfully performed a test exercise under his responsibility • J80 key has been included in the SU key and curriculum. SU key holders of previous years had to make a supervised J80 outing to get key extension. 27 must still do it, 60 have done it. • 6 M keys and 9 Rib keys thanks to a Q-boat mentoring program. The ore drivers we have, the more flexibility we have for courses and training YCC Courses 2014 Key awarded D ED C EC Y CC SU R j80 M GS Total 2014 18 4 4 1 28 7 9 60 9 6 9 105 2013 23 5 - - 17 3 4 n/a 1 3 1 57 2012 26 1 3 3 28 5 4 n/a 4 12 5 91 2011 32 4 5 5 18 7 11 n/a 17 4 6 109 2010 19 2 11 18 31 7 5 n/a - 3 1 97 2009 29 9 6 - 28 8 7 n/a - 3 9 99 2008 18 3 4 - 30 - 6 n/a - 5 7 77 2007 20 7 3 - 28 - 5 n/a - 8 18 102 2006 14 3 1 - 20 - 7 n/a - 2 3 65 YCC Courses 2014 Acknowledgements • Courses are a collective exercise • I would like to thank the coordinators: Tim Hucksteps, Vince Cobham, Sascha Schmelling, Gonzalo Penacoba, Rachid Mazini, Torsten Layda, and Tomasz Ladzinsky • My thanks extend to further 45 members who were teachers and/or examiners • Thanks to the Q-boat drivers and the maintenance volunteers • And thanks to the students – for making teaching fun and rewarding! – for understanding this is a volunteer-based effort YCC Courses 2014 Many thanks to the teachers!
