 In Holland Pure Sailing BV has entered the market with a new boat for the open 2.4mR Class. 7 boats have come out of the mould and the first one is measured and certified. The project has been conducted in the open development class spirit which is to make optimal use of the Class Rule and at the same time apply modern building techniques to ensure strength and stiffness. Further information under "Boat and equipment" and in the Newspaper.
In England Formula 2.4 ltd. has organized the building of the new Stradivari, up to now five of them. Two boats are certified and one of them (picture) is already sailing and is very competitive. This boat also make use of closed cell core and modern building techniques. The sail plan has a bigger main and a narrower jib, working on a 1.4mR J measurement. The boat will be extensively raced and ranked this spring to reveal its speed potential.
The core of a R formula based Class Rule is to inspire designers all over the world to exploit new ideas and strive for faster and durable boats, and to bring in new builders in order to ensure variety, modern building techniques and correct prices. I welcome and congratulate Pure Sailing and Formula 2.4 ltd. with the boats and hope that they will be successfull. I also congratulate the UK and Dutch National Class Associations with national 2.4mR production and expect them to support the initiators when possible and where appropriate.
Paul Kragset, president. |

Mark Bryant www.Bryantod.com, has sold his measured, one design, 2.4mR molds to Jon VanderMolen of the North American Sailing Center, in Richland Michigan to build the boats in the United States. http://www.thesailingcenter.us/index.htm
His effort to mix quality and performance boats took many turns in the sale of these molds. It took over a year to find and select the perfect business. Mark is confident that Jon will do a Great job for the class, as his build in the Star class has proven.
Now retired, Mark will continue as International Newsletter editor, a yahoo group moderator and finally, a sailing competitor.
We wish Mark the best!

Miami, Florida
Day 1
It was an ideal day for sailing on Biscayne Bay. The wind was steady at the start of the first race at 10-12 from the north and stayed that way for the entire race. With oscilations of up to 25 degrees on either side of north, it became important to play all of the shifts. Allan led all the way around the course to take the win with Johnny and Megan fighting it out for second place right behind him. In race 2 the wind started to go light and would drop to 6-8 and then go back up to 10-12. The shifts were about the same in the beginning but then started to persistantly go right and the RC moved to the right for the last leg.Allan again took the lead for this race with Charlie and Paul finishing second and third.
