Annual report: Quiet last year due to Covid restrictions and lack of appetite for meetings.
Class Champs currently being run successfully by BBYC with 8 yachts participating. Today’s results revealed 4 different yachts winning 1 race each – showing the success of Class racing.
Annual Accounts: presented and accepted – (Refer attached) noted a big reduction in membership but acknowledged there was no reminder to members, however there was good FB activity.
Committee members elected below with unanimous decision:
- Chair/Co-ordinator (interim) – Mike Lanigan
- Secretary (for AGM only) – Sheryl Lanigan
- Treasurer – Roger Hudson
- Measurer – Peter Strathdee
- Webmaster – Mike Paauwe
- Racing – Tony Evans
- Cruising - Peter Chipperfield
- Social & FB communications – Dee Chipperfield & Hilary McKee
General business:
Robust discussion was held around the purpose & format of the Class Assn moving forward. What is the relevance today? – Value in a class boat if members want to class race. Use electronic messaging for communications and zoom meetings as required.
Less formal titles, co-operative sharing but do need a lead person to be a co-ordinator and as collecting fees, also need a treasurer to keep not for profit status.
Other option to consider is winding up/closing down the Association and donating funds to e.g. youth yachting or other. Need to research constitution re details required, meantime continue status quo as Committee (interested group) above.
Suggested to start with closing PO Box and resigning National Class from YNZ (reduces outgoings)
Meeting closed after acknowledgement to Tony Evans for his efforts to date.
