CLASSE MINI INFO - MAY 2021

Sustainable Development Committee

Who are they?

In December of last year, the 6.50 Ecology Committee began reflecting upon ways and ideas in which our Class could become a source of innovation in the field of sustainable development.

This Committee is charged with searching for, and promoting, concrete solutions that can be applied to the Mini 6.50 specificities. This work is being carried out in collaboration with the association LA VAGUE.

The basis for our reflections was the response to the ’Ecology’ questionnaire that was sent to our 2020 members. This resulted in an analysis of the suggestions, the adjudged relevance thereof , the symbolic value and the cost to ratio of implementation/impact . The first propositions were submitted to the Board on the 22^nd of February.

Launched parallel to this was an LCA (Life Cycle Analysis) study in partnership with Mer Concept and Quantis. The goal is to study the full environmental impact of a particular project such as a ‘podium/performance goal ’ on a production boat, or ’ adventure’ on a production boat, ‘podium/performance’ on a proto etc To this end, the objective is to explore potential avenues for improvement in terms of sustainable development in our sport.

This committee comprises 23 members but is open to all on request (christophebriere@hotmail.com ou contact@classemini.com).

We’ll keep you informed of its progress on a regular basis.

Any thoughts/modifications are welcome.

Guide Mini

Amendment #1

With the first safety checks in the beginning of the season, you let us know that some of our texts did not respect the OSR and/or were not clear enough for all. You will therefore find an amendment to the Guide Mini clarifying the following points:

- E-9-C: recovery line should not be the floating line of the recovery sling.

- E-14-a-c: new text on protection of internal connection only concerns the assembly of lithium batteries.
