Resolution 2025-06
WS Approval for Electronics (Resolution 2024-05)
Suggested NOR Language for Electronics (Resolution 2024-05)

At their November 5, 2024 meeting, the IGC passed two resolutions.

Resolution 2024-05 allows for temporary exemption to Class Rule C.5.1(b) to explore the use of onboard electronics through May 30, 2025. This exemption has been granted by World Sailing. This resolution replaces both previous resolutions and the previous exemption regarding the use of electronics. The use of electronics is left up to the event OA and the NOR for the event state that the exemption will be used and which functionality will be allowed. The class has received WS permission for this change. The approval and suggested NOR language are linked.

Resolution 2024-06 waives the requirement for partifipation in a Qualifying Event for competitors to participate in the 2025 Worlds.

Both these resolutions were shared with the national secretaries on November 6, 2024.
