A group of NZ Classes including individual administrators, sailmakers, coaches and top sailors in 12 footers, 18 footers, Farr 3.7, A Class, Paper Tigers and Moth have put together a two page progression chart for families, sailors, clubs to discuss and consider.

We know it won’t be of interest to everyone, but it is probably a point of view a bit under-exposed and a wide group of different people/classes felt moved enough to give it a good refresh.

In order to suit the Facebook generation it is also on a Facebook page called www.facebook.com/NZL.Skiff in case that is of use to print, like or share.

The chart has obtained some enthusiastic support and a new version with better graphics is being worked on to improve it.

The chart comprises a page of notes as well as a page of graphics.
