SUCCESSFUL ONE-DESIGN MANAGEMENT
US Sailing has posted an excerpt from their Class Management Handbook
that outlines their “Ten Commandments for Successful One-Design
Management:”
1. Communicate
2. Use local fleets as fleet building blocks and their leaders as
your conduit to the sailors.
3. Balance continuity and new blood
4. Create enforceable class rules – and enforce them
5. Treat your builder as a partner
6. Raise money
7. Let the world know you exist
8. Make your championships outstanding events
9. Get everyone involved
10. Make one-design sailing fun!

I think that the Cedar Point gang did a fine job of following these rules... Kudos to them. I hope to see that kind of work again in Annapolis this fall...
