When we passed the finish line in the last race of ECC 2011 as
first ship home we had this great view astern!

Just a few hours later we realised that we won a great victory and even a bigger task for the future!

Approaching the Christmas Season and the years end may be is the right moment to have a short view astern at the progress of the preparations for ECC 2012.

So far we managed to complete the entry list and the boat selection (out of a fantastic fleet).
The route is nearly fixed.
Most of the crews paid the first half of the charter fees in time, although after all the reminders from Ivan I wondered that I had to call five skippers today to ask them to complete that task.

Furthermore we invited friends and participants of the ECC to become a sponsor in 2012. Although we know about the uncertainties expected by all our companies we are really happy to get considerable positive feedback and even the first money reached our account. Nevertheless we hope that there will be even more potential sponsors showing interest to support the ECC 2012. If you should know any interested person please contact us.

Every year the Christmas Season is a time when all of us are thinking about charity. Despite our predominantly relative small individual tasks and problems we know that we are priviliged people compared with others who are facing really serious troubles.
Looking forward to sail in the beautiful Croatian Waters with friends and enjoying lovely peaceful evenings as well as turbulent parties I think we could and we should help some other people not as happy as we are. So we looked around for a charity organisation fitting the ECC – something about competitive but peaceful sailing with international friends.

What we found is the ‘Mirno More Peace Fleet’

an international youth project for disadvantaged kids. In the beginning of 2012 we will let you know more about the nominated charity organisation.

Now we wish you a Merry Xmas and a happy New Year with this painting from Svea Koop (12 years)

We are very pleased to welcome these guys from boat 56:

Has the Committee got my …..?

Here we are again with an update of the ECC 2012 Entry Status List from today.

• Our decision for the location of the ECC 2012 was quite narrow. We have got some really nice proposals from Sasha King, Adriatic Holidays (Göcek, Turkey and Sibenik, Croatia), Victor Llopez Wintsch, Nauticgroup (Sicily, Italy) and Milan Sangulin, Ilirija d.d. (Biograd, Croatia).
  As finally we decided for Biograd and herewith for Milan, obviously you will hear a lot about him and his proposal.

  So in this short article I would like to say

  THANK YOU VERY MUCH

  
  again to Sasha

  
  

  and to Victor

  
  

  My crew and I we really “sailed” their Proposals with fingers on the screen and a beautiful flavour from fantastic italian, croatian or turkish food in our noses, well done!

  So now we are really enthusiastic about these locations as well and could very well imagine to sail these waters, perhaps in holidays or in a future ECC.

  So guys and future Commodores if anyone should consider sailing in these regions or anywhere in the Mediterranean please don’t forget to ask these friendly and competent professionals for their invaluable offers, I’m sure it’s worth that.
