Dear Fleet Captains,

SCA President Galloway just posted this to the Sonar website: Please inform your fleet members.

URGENT NOTICE: Sonar Worlds dates changed.
Thursday, September 25th, 2003   7:06 am   

Due to a low number of confirmed entries and scheduling conflicts with international competitors who could not ship boats to arrive in time for the event, it has been decided, after consultation with the host organization, the St. Petersburg Yacht Club, to postpone the World Championship until February 2004. Exact dates will be released in the near future.

To hold the World Championship in conjunction with the Mid-winters and ST.Petersburg NOOD regatta will provide an opportunity to obtain maximum international participation and attract a larger andmore diverse group of competitors.

The SCA sincerely apolgizes for any inconveneiance this presents, but believes the World Championship should represent the best competion the class has to offer and rescheduling to the mid-February dates will ensure this.

Please check the web site regularly for updates.

.
Sarah Sheldon
SCA Secretary
