Proposed T-10 Class Rule Change: Main Boom

The T-10 Class Association is considering a change to the rules that provide specifications for the main boom. The purpose of this posting is to get feedback prior to the rule change being put to the members of the class association for a vote.  Feedback may be provided either in the T-10 Class Association Facebook Page Posting or via email to jschellenbach@gmail.com.

The current main boom specification reads as follows: 3.5.6 b) The boom section shall be the Kenyon E-Section (0.375’ +/- 0.010’ x 0.229 +/- 0.010’).

Kenyon has changed the specifications for the E-Section boom so that it is no longer possible to purchase a new main boom that meets the T-10 Class Association rules.

The proposal is that the T-10 Class Association Rules will be modified to allow for the use of main booms manufactured by the class association, similar to how the class association currently manufactures and sells mast sections. It is expected that the class boom will be less expensive than the Kenyon E-section boom.

The revised rule would read as follows: 3.5.6 b) The boom section shall be the Kenyon E-Section or similar. Sections extruded after 04/17/2018 shall be in accordance to Official Plan B Boom Section (Samuel Son & Co. Die No. H7479 Rev. A 4/04/18)

T-10 National Class 2018 Dues Payment Now Active

The T-10 National Class 2018 Dues Payment page on the website is now active and available for new or renewing members to update their roster information and pay their 2018 dues.  The 2018 dues page can be reached by clicking on the Join/Renew button in the upper right corner of the site or by going to https://www.tten.com/join-renew/.

New for 2018, the membership fee for Associate Members has been eliminated.  That's right, Associate Members can join the class for free!

And for Regular Members, the dues remain at $50.  That price has been consistent since 1999.  How many other things in life can you say haven't had a price increase in 19 years?

Your membership dues go towards administration of the class, publication of the class website and the TenSpeed newsletter, support of the North American Championship and support of the T-10 college regattas.  The class also arranges for the manufacture and sale of masts for the T-10.
