The Committee received the report from the Events Manager dated 7 August 1999. The Kuopio Yacht Club and the Finnish Yachting Association were congratulated on the excellent Championship. It was noted that the reports should be made available to future organisers. The Committee received the minutes of the Team Leaders Forum held on 7 July 1999 in Kuopio, Finland. The Committee decided to experiment with a scoring system where the four best scoring boats from a team per race, per nation would score points towards the Volvo Trophy.
Some event organisers seem to have problems with scoring computer software.
ISAF should investigate how assistance good be given. The Committee would like to ask the Trust to expand the service by having two coaches available, one male and one female. In order to save costs it was suggested that coaches from countries close to the venue should be used. It was further mentioned that the coaches should be role models for the sailors of this generation. The Committee received submission number 091-99 from the Irish Sailing Association.
