Hover News: Updated 14:07:51 16. januar 2010


Isforekomster i bl.a. Limfjorden, anlæg frosset fast i isen 

Ejere søger derfor kontakt til ejere af hovercrafts hurtigt !! 

I forbindelse med de nuværende isforekomster i bl.a. Limfjorden, er der flere muslingeopdrættere, som har anlæg frosset fast i isen. Der er ret store værdier på spil, og det er ikke længere muligt at sejle ud gennem isen til anlæggene, men isen er heller ikke tyk nok til at gå på endnu.

 Jeg søger derfor kontakt til ejere af hovercrafts eller lignende, som vil kunne komme ud til anlæggene.

Ring venligst til mig på 20 57 66 78. Jeg svarer også i weekenden!

Med venlig hilsen   Lars Erik Holtegaard , Lundkjærvej 36 , 7900 Nykøbing M.

November 2007
 
Dear WHF members,
Subject to sufficient entries F25 will be included in the 2008 World Championships in Sweden.
It was not clear from their original bid but the Swedish organization for the 2008 WHC has confirmed that they are planning to include F25 in their program. However, it should be remembered that for a formula to qualify as a World Championship (that is be included at an event) there must be at least 8 competitors registered with the organizers by their declared final registration date. If less than 8 competitors actually arrive at the event it is possible that the formula will be run at the same time as another formula. This applies to all formulae – in particular F3.
 
This is in line with the policy adopted by the WHF at its last Board meeting and is covered by minute 06.06 reproduced below.
 
06.06 Minimum numbers competing in a Formulae

At the Wednesday pre-meeting it was decided that:

For a formula to qualify as a World Championship there must be at least 8 competitors at the final registration date.

This Governing Board added the following - “When less than 8 competitors in a formula arrive at the event it may be possible that 2 formulae are run concurrently (at the same time). This will be by agreement between the Organizers and the WHF”. This was adopted by this meeting.

Best regards,

World Hovercraft Federation     Christel Martens, secretary   

Bulletin 16  2008 World Championships in Sweden.
