Up_Next 2 #508 Posted October 30, 2020 So no two handed boats are eligible for the Tattersalls Cup or divisional placings. They will race in their own division. Two handed boats are not eligible to compete against fully crewed boats. That's the word from the CYCA according to their email today. This sucks.....

Couta 476 #510 Posted October 30, 2020 And here's the decision from that tight-knit little fraternity that looks after its own.... It's the classic "shit sandwich" approach with the "we value you" opening statement..followed by the shit .....followed by the "we really value" you closer....read on: "Thank you for your patience and understanding with regard to the Two-Handed eligibility decision The Club has spent a long time considering all aspects of this decision. We are writing to advise you of the Board’s decision. The Club remains incredibly excited about the inclusion of two-handed sailing in the Rolex Sydney Hobart, particularly as this area of our sport becomes increasingly popular worldwide. Nevertheless, this new division adds a layer of complexity through the sophisticated sailing technology associated with Autopilot units. The Club believes further understanding needs to be gained regarding the full capacity of this technology and how it will be accommodated within current handicap rating systems. As such, the Club will be amending the 2020 Rolex Sydney Hobart Notice of Race to reflect that two-handed entrants will be scored within their own handicap category divisions and not be eligible to compete against fully crewed boats in divisions or for the overall race win. The inclusion of two-handed sailing is an important step forward for the Club and we will be honouring this division with a new perpetual trophy for the IRC Two-Handed overall winner. The Amendment to the Notice of Race will be published early next week." This is despite meetings and reassurances by none less than the commodore and sailing manager that this would not happen...it just did...because a handful of power-brokers on big name boats threatened/persuaded the club to reconsider their priorities.... Entries have been withdrawn.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Couta 476 #511 Posted October 30, 2020 Gotta love the justification..."The Club believes further understanding needs to be gained regarding the full capacity of this technology and how it will be accommodated within current handicap rating systems."....Like they've only just realised that short handed racing yachts use self steering tech......and have been doing so for years. Either the club threw the idea of short handed into the mix as a poorly considered "brain fart"...or there's been a serious push back from the power brokers necessitating a back down. Pretty clear what happened. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eastcoastlow 5 #512 Posted October 30, 2020 Hey Couta, you’ve absolutely hit the nail on the head. It seems ridiculous that a two-handed boat is not eligible to win while everything from a 100 foot diesel-powered canter to a 30 something foot 1904 timber classic (Katwinchar or Maluka) are eligible. The other 600 mile Rolex races manage to include these boats, why not the CYCA? #stuckinthepast 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boink 661 #524 Posted November 2, 2020 Did we really expect anything else from the Tilting at Windmills mentality that has given us 100ft limits - which exluded the likes of Mari Cha IV, IRC limits to competition - when Max Z86 Morning Glory which would have handed a boatspeed lesson to Skandia and Alfa Romeo - was banned as being too fast, AIS gate - with Mark Richards hair gel alledgedly frying the onboard electronics, and now Double Handed divisions being excluded? Despite Autopilots being the way forward - being both adopted and embraced by the European community - the CYCA sticks their heads in the sand and act like King Canute trying to hold back the tide - we all know how that worked out........ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jono 42 #539 Posted November 3, 2020 I'm still amazed that the CYCA has no problem with electrics / moveable ballast and power generation but thinks an autopilot gives an unfair advantage. Still what will be will be. Gives me another reason not to be stressed about not going. Re quarantining. Kiwis can still come over on Christmas Day, but will have to quarantine for 14 days on return - if they can get a spot in a hotel. The Pros can call it business related and may well get paid for the confinement. However they would still miss New Year and a fortnight at the beach. Tough ask.

Yeah read the lawsuit deal. Sounded more like they were whinging about Gavin Brady talking up the boat's rating. Obviously when your selling a racing boat the rating and race results pretty much dictate a big part of the boat's price. If this Botin 80 got sold for $570k then I would have thought the boat isn't travelling too well? It never set the world on fire but I think originally it was designed to use some recycled gear? So Gavin Brady being sued for being shonky and the boat ends up with Wharro? Humm, case closed I would have thought... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn’t this Dale Kerrigan and he is famous for digging a hole ? As far as Pual Hayes goes, Pual is one of the Mornington Sailing maffa and a very good sailor and his son Zac is also a very good sailor. The one bonus with Warro coming back into the game is he is going to piss off so many people at the CYC in any boat he is Sailing. How would it be if he sailed in the short handed division and took line honours in this boat and beat the 100 footers ? I know, Tell him he is dreaming !!!!! it would put a smile on my face and many others as well. Pulpit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
