Spring 2025 High School Sailing - S1

January 10, 2025

January 16th marks the start of the second semester in High School sailing.  While the wind and weather this week are not conducive to starting the spring season in New England, there are a few things to consider this month in anticipation of the season.

First off, as I begin to disengage myself from the role of NESSA Secretary/Treasure, I am going to start sending these email blasts from the NESSA Account and not my personal account.  

  1. Procedural Rules: The ISSA Board approved the 2025-2028 ISSA Procedural Rules last night on our monthly conference call.  They will be posted on the Resource page of ISSA Website  by January 16th. Hardcopies will be mailed to all member schools in the next few months.  The rules have been substantially rewritten so everyone should get eyes on them before the start of the season.

  2. To that end, Dave Perry's Rules Seminar

    • Title: What’s New in the New Rules for 2025-2028, and Other Discussions on the Rules

    • Date: Monday, Feb 10, 2025

    • Times: 8:00 – 10:00 pm EST

    • Target participants – all ISSA Coaches

    • Platform: Zoom Meeting. The session would be recorded, and the link sent afterwards for anyone missing it.

    • See attached flyer for details.

    • One lucky school will get a free ISSA membership 

  3. NESSA Spring Regattas

    1. NORs posted by February 1, 2025 HOPEFULLY. Please note that it took longer than expected to complete the revision of the ISSA PR.  Now that they have been approved the Rules Committee will turn towards a rewrite of the Fleet Racing and Team Racing Notice of Race Templates.  This might cause a delay in the posting of the Spring 2025 NORs for NESSA regattas.

    2. Registration opens on March 1, 2025

    3. Registration closed on April 1, 2025

Enjoy the weekend.  Perhaps take in the New England Boats Show in Boston.
