2019 FFI Ballot results

Posted on June 13, 2019 by FFI Secretary

The World Results of the recent ballot have been issued by FFI with all items approved with the exception of Item 6 - the number of sails that can be entered on a certificate in a year.

FFI's Constitution and Championship Regulations will be updated shortly to reflect the changes. Note that the changes to the Championship Regulations will not come into effect until after the 2019 FFI World Championship.

The Class Rules will be updated and forwarded to World Sailing for their approval. The procedure regarding the Rule Changes is that, following WS approval, FFI will publish the revised class rules to come into effect on 1 March 2020.
