23rd to 25 th of April at the easter weekend the classic European season opener for the A class is planned.

Easter is quite late this year, so enough possibilties to do some training regatta's ahead . We expect a good big fleet of at least 80 boats . Organisation is in the hands of the well known Congrega Velisti Cesenatico
see the links for the Notice of Race .

The quiet Queensland lakeside village of Boreen Point, on the shores of Lake Cootharaba will take on a busy ,and International ambience during the first week of January, when a fleet of between 70 and 80 A Class Catamarans compete in their National championships.

A-class sailing is beginning to get quite popular in Holland. It’s probably too early to state that the introduction of the DNA is causing a hype but fact is that it gives the class a certain buzz. In Hellevoetsluis there were 48 boats from 6 countries at the start.
Conditions were very windy, up to 24 knots on the last day, and flat water behind the dike which separates the lake Haringvliet from the North Sea.

The DNA, the new Dutch A-classby Advanced Racing Catamarans with curved boards has made his debut at Easter during the Vele di Pasqua.
