JWC-JEC 2022 Update 1
Dear Young Icesailors, Parents, and Trainers,
The DN-Junior and Ice-Optimist WC&EC 2022 scheduled for March 6th-11th will take place in Haapsalu, Estonia starting with the check-in on Sunday, March 6th.
Sailors are encouraged to participate in the Estonian Cup Regatta between March 5-6 in order to have a good practice before the championship races.
I received confirmation from the Estonian officials that the situation there is safe and it is no special risk to organize the event there in the current situation.
Please consider your participation as a confirmation for Estonia as the host of the event.
See you there,

Events – Tracking
Dear Fellow Competitors,
As before we have been providing online tracking to each sailor who are willing to bring their smartphones with them during the race and trainings of the WC & EC.
- Please download and register in the KWINDOO Tracking app. Enable Location Services & other requirements of the app.
- On the ice, Refresh the event list and choose DN World & European Championships (or JWC/JEC).
- Start Tracking, and put your phone in a warm place (inner pocket) and if you have attach a powerbank.
- When finished with the day on the ice, don’t forget to stop the tracker.
Your activity will be rewatchable live on the regatta website and after 17.00 on your device.
Clarification on the COVID Protocol 2022
I have heard rumors that some of our members are interpreting the IDNIYRA-EUROPE COVID-19 Protocol as not mandatory because it uses the word “should” instead of “must”.
Now I don’t want to start a debate about English grammar because this is not that platform. Rather, let’s look at what the intent was when this document was adopted.
We want to host safe events for all participants in an epidemiologically uncertain environment.
We can only do this if all participants are adequately protected against the COVID virus. And this is clearly a complete vaccination.
We require this, as in the case of an infection, it is very unlikely that anyone will get sick so severely that they will have to be hospitalized and consequently the local authorities will need to interrupt the event and everyone will be quarantined as a contact person.
That would be the situation that no icesailor would want.
That is why I ask everyone to keep the spirit of the COVID Protocol in mind and not to start hair-splitting.
To make it clear throughout the text, the phrase “should have” is to be understood as “must have”.
I apologize to everyone for the inconvenience.
Think Ice,
Attila Pataky (M-100)
Commodore

IDNIYRA EUROPE COVID-19 Protocol
Dear Fellow Icesailors,
A new season starts soon and we have to be ready not only with our ice sailing gear but also be prepared to cope with the challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. I hope that all of you are healthy and not influenced by COVID infection or any serious consequences. This year we intend to organize the WC/EC, but to keep our community safe we have to introduce some protocols, which has to be obeyed by all participants of the event. Below you can find the COVID-19 Protocol. Please read it carefully and be prepared for the safe season and for participation in IDNIYRA events.
Think Ice,
Attila Pataky (M-100)
