Din Mening

Til Visler og andre OK-jolle ejere. Vedr. forsikring....:

Man kan ved at tage telefonen og trykke på nogen knapper, ringe til sit forsikringsselskab og få dem til at sende et stykke papir på at man er forsikret....OG DET KOSTER IKKE NOGET ...... er det ikke smart ??? ... tror det er det der menes i Ebeltoft .....

Hilsen Jesper
(OK-indehaver)

Hvad dokumentation ? Nu har dette med dokumentation været en joke de sidste mange mange år til dm. Hvad skal man tage med der er fyldest gørende ?

VEDR. DM i EBELTOFT:

HUSK AT MEDBRINGE DOKUMENTATION FOR BETALT FORSIKRINGSPRÆMIE!!!

Oplysning om selskab og policenr. er ikke nok!

Mvh.
Claus

SÅ GUTTER...
KUN 18 DAGE TIL TILMELDINGSFRISTEN TIL DM I EBELTOFT...

Gå ikke glip af denne once-in-a-lifetime experience, - allerede over 30 tilmeldte, heraf mindst 7 fra udlandet. Hvornår runder vi 40 tilmeldinger?

Kom og giv dine konkurrenter baghjul, afprøv din sidste nye teknik, trim, og sejlegenskaber, - eller kan du mon komme op i klassementet??

JA, - så er det altså senest om 18 dage du skal tippe dig ind, se on-line-tilmeldingen under "stævner".


vi ses i Ebeltoft,
Claus

Mon ikke snart elite centret vil bytte navn med motionscentret...jeg er sikker på at disse navne må forvirre andre..........

Mogens sørger for at Solrød igen er "bedste danske klub"....

38 OK-joller i Warnemünde. Rene Johansen ligger i top 10, Lindhardtsen nr. 11 foreløbig

Vil nogle sende en sms til mig på 21 66 57 37 med Joe Schuberts tlf. nr. Han sejler OK-jolle for Norsminde Sejlklub. Tak.

Der bør være en forklaring/def at finde hos ISAF.

Det ror jeg tror vi taler om er fremstillet på flg. måde.

Støbt skumkerne i en kasse foeret med plast
Shapet med en kniv derefter sandpapir
Glasset op med unidirectional S glas 2 lag ca. 200g/m2 og dobbelt omkring forkanten.
det vejede ca 800g, hertil kommer så rorpind og forlænger samt beslag. Det var mit mål at komme under 2Kg, men jeg fik ikke gjort det færdigt før jeg solgte jollen. Jeg ved ikke om der efterfølgende er tilføjet kulfiber, hvilket ikke skulle være nødvendigt.

"Skumkerne med kulfiberforstærkninger"
Da jeg skal gang med at bygge et nyt ror af en skumkerne er jeg blevet lidt forvirret af at læse alle indlægene om nye lette svær og ror.
Klassereglerne tillader ikke brug af kul til ror og sværd, men en beskyttelsesstribe af ethvert matriale er tilladt. En beskyttelsesstribe er fx mod slid i sværkisten eller en forstærkning af for/agterkant af ror og sværd. Hvis man byger forstærkninger eller stringers af kul for at gøre roret/sværdet stivere må det opfattes som en overtrædelse af klassereglerne.
Er vi enig??????

Mere fra Deaves artikel:

After a little investigation Jackson decided the OK was worth a look, "I'd been thinking of doing some dinghy sailing for a while and had always thought I'd get a Laser but after hearing about Stu getting an OK and finding out a little more about the class, it just seemed like a good thing to have a crack at. For starters the boats are cheaper and more durable than a Laser. After a little work, the carbon rig allows everyone to be competitive in any breeze, regardless of size; there's an organised schedule of events around the country and the standard of the racing appears pretty competitive. From what I hear, the guys that sail them are a pretty relaxed and social bunch as well, so what more could you ask."



Joe Porebski, Vice President of OKDIA, the world association and long time OK sailor said, "Having these three join the OK fleet here in New Zealand has created a lot of excitement for the coming year within the class. It's not everyday that the average club sailor in New Zealand gets to compete with guys of this standard - we are used to watching them on the TV or the internet. It's the same as having a first string of All Blacks turn up for a game and a social beer on a Saturday afternoon."



Porebski goes on to point out that the OK has seen some of New Zealand's finest sailors pass through its ranks, naming Rick and Tom Dobson, Peter Lester, David Barnes, Tony Mutter, Graham Woodroffe, Barry Thom and Leith Armit. He continues, "Although class numbers are not as high as those of the 70s and 80s, the OK has survived pretty well in the last decade with a solid core of long time sailors, who have kept the class alive and well, both domestically and abroad."



Returning OK Dinghy sailor Matt Stechmann reiterates the point, "Interest has started to pick up again in the last couple of years with quite a few additions to the fleet, some new and some returning. The rising cost of the Laser, coupled with its inclusion in the Olympics has turned into more of an elitist fleet for those pursuing Olympic selection, so the days of a 40-hour working week, training after work and expecting to turn up and be competitive are long gone."



He continued, "Meanwhile, the OK association are promoting just that, a reasonable priced craft and good local competition, both here and with fellow sailors from Australia. In addition you get the chance to sail in an 80 boat fleet at the Worlds - if you manage to win a spot - as at present the New Zealand fleet's strength is not matched by any other OK sailing nation. And what's more, while you're at it, bring the wife and kids as many of the sailors do. How many classes still offer that?"

Volvo stars step into OK Dinghies.

Af Robert Deaves, britisk Ok-sejler

What do you do after stepping off a Volvo Open 70 at the end of a gruelling round the world yacht race? Take a shower? Have a good meal? Or maybe catch up on some sleep? Perhaps the last thing you’d want to do is go sailing.

However, for three Kiwi watch captains from the race just finished, their solution is to take up OK Dinghy sailing. Stu Bannatyne from Movistar, Scott Beavis from ABN AMRO TWO and race winner Brad Jackson from ABN AMRO ONE have all purchased OK Dinghies ready for the coming season in New Zealand. Also returning will be Matt Stechmann after a 20-month break from the class while working shore-side for the race winning ABN Team.

Matt Stechmann said, “We are all looking forward to getting ready for the OK summer ranking series, the Interdominions and the Nationals, which will all be held at venues throughout North Island. Another couple of Volvo lads are also in the hunt for boats. One is planning to be ready for the summer series, while the other is trying to fit in some sailing around America’s Cup commitments.”

OK-joller i Warnemünde

Seks OK-jollesejlere viser de rød-hvide farver frem i Warnemünde i denne weekend. Warnemünde er kendt for et åbent farvand med store bølger og frisk vind.
Favoritten blandt OK-sejlerne bliver den 61-årige Hvidovre-sejler Jørgen Lindhardtsen, der i februar tog VM-sølv i Australien. Stævnet bruges som opvarmning til EM i Frankrig, der starter 23. juli.
- Vi har trænet en del op til stævnet ud for Solrød Strand, siger Jørgen Lindhardtsen.
