We at the Sailing Centre would like to remind all our Dragons of the following rules:
HKODA News
2014 means in Optimist Age that everyone is one year older
as of 1 January. Those Dragons who were in the 10-andunder category are now entering the 12-and-under group
(Timothée) and Emily Keg—who has just joined us—enter
the master ranks.
Inter-school Regatta 2014
Some of our Dragons will be representing their schools in
this year’s event organised by the RHKYC. It will be held
on 15 & 16 March at Middle Island. The event will comprise
more than 100 races between 20 schools. Each race
consists of two three-boat teams (i.e six participants) in
either RS Fevas or Picos. Each race will be one round and
each team will race against each other team at least once.
New rankings will be available after the next HKODA race at
the RHKYC in April.
As of going to print, we have the following Dragons who will
be competing against each other.
