IOMICA clarification of builder’s declaration
Following the issue of the new IOM Measurement Forms and procedures on 1 March 2013, the Tech Team has been questioned about the specific requirements of signing this form. This requires a ‘new’ signature on the new Certification Measurement Form, in addition to the owner’s undertaking to maintain the boat in compliance with class rules and the Official Measurer’s signature. We now have a clarification of the requirements of the builder’s declaration from IOMICA.
This affects hull moulders, suppliers, boat builders, owners and Official Measurers. The clarification is not yet on the IOMICA website, but has been released to the MYA and can be found on our website.
Please refer to the MYA Knowledge Base > Technical documents > International One Metre > IOMICA clarification of builder’s declaration.

Yearbook 2013 – Club extras
This year Yearbooks have gone out to individuals. This does mean that clubs have not received the few extra copies as in previous years.
If clubs need extra copies for exhibitions they may be exhibiting at or have an openday they can contact me direct and I will send out a small parcel to them.
My contact details are in the Yearbook.

After many years of service to the MYA, Gordon Sears has decided to step down as MYA Midland District Councillor.
Gordon announced at the recent Midland District race event that work and health pressures had led him to make this difficult decision.

MYA Attends Dinghy Show 2013
Following on from our success at the recent London Boatshow the MYA will be attending the upcoming Dinghy Show at Alexandra Palace on 2nd & 3rd March.
As with the London Boatshow there will be a radio sailing pool on which members of the public can have a go at radio sailing with one of the fleet of Micro Magic yachts.
I am writing to appeal for volunteers to come and man both the pool and the MYA stand, like the London Boatshow we are offering a free ticket to anyone who volunteers as well plenty of time to wander around the show and take in the many exciting high performance dinghies that will be on show.
