Present: Richard Carrey, Henrik Kolding, Michele Felder, Joseph Shieh, Steve Wallace, Nicole Klaassen
start 19:30pm, Residents Club
Date: April 7 2005

1. Events May

  • Too many social events scheduled for may, we will cancel the Sunshine Island Family Cruise
  • Spring dinner: (without Hobie club); Scheduled for May 21st Saturday

2. Training

  • 18 sailors attended (& certified) train the trainer course with Brian Phipps
  • Some questions raised since most of participants were (and are) not a member of the club. Whether we will see them again is a big question mark. Altough for the long term it will probably work out well for the club, next time we should commit outsiders to activities/membership if they want to attend our training

3. Dragon Boat race

  • We are invited to enter a team for the Dragon Boat Race (HKD 3000)
  • Marianne Kolding will coordinate this year's Dragon boat race (20 people required; only 1/2 practice sessions - HK

  • The Hobie's will organise the Hobie Asia (October 22-23). We are invited as long as we sail a Hobie 16.
  • This year we will not have the Commodore's cup.
  • We propose a race with the Hobie's (end of november) in which we will mix crews.

5. Regatta 2005

  • We need to start contacting the sponsors
  • Joseph and Richard to follow up with James - JS/RC

6. Hut

  • It looks like the new contact in DB resorts is positive towards the plans for our hut.
  • We need project plan, further details and project manager
  • Steve will ask Nina to play role of project manager
  • To execute we probably need 6-8 weeks. We should prevent having a building site during the Regatta.
