roadmapping 2010 - 2020

Now I know more about my actual goals in their entirtuy I can put together a rough calender or sequential roadmap to get moving and chech my progress


2010 -

Helming, helming and more helming.

The school and crewing in 2009 are just sideshows. The 109 was my last time on the main for a while. We did as good as we should have given the broach, and good on the Fjord.

Helming in a OD of what ever sort will be the one thing to focus on. I can always train up my crew skills but

(or 2011 if i take T: taking T would be - no local OD to helm in. No snipe crew regular plkus back up. No sharing helm with Rolf. The odd sail with Petter and maybe the peterhead race) Time out would also mean a minimum of a gym a week and a tour over an hour på ski eller sykkel.


2011- Perhaps melges worlds as a target.

Menorca sailing - two weeks maybe

certainly in 2011/12 my own dinghy and some OD racing in it. Perhaps helping the snipe girls build up to a NM

Shared helm of an express or some other OD.

Crewing again on maybe the M24 and some bigger boat

2014 - a nationals in the express, X99 or X35 or 31.7, on main with tactics. Perhaps this could be an OD event in Scotland or Ireland or South England. Menorca sailing again.

2015 moving towards owning an express. Or perhaps doing a nationals in the snipe. Perhaps restablishing the 59er as a natural moving up boat to the snipe?

2016 - another year as in 15

2017-20 . Perhaps a share in a 31.7. Perhaps a big shared charter to include west highland week.



Here are my collated goals-





Skill challenges / targets 2010/11

1) taking more responsibility- responsibility in joined up writing and complete scentences MR H

2) going the whole nine yards with 1- getting into detail, bending, measuring, fixing.

3) practice

4) sailing up wind, tacking better

5) sailing upwind in waves

6) sailing in strong winds

7) helming in medium winds and doing well in a fleet

I shouldn't be so troubled but here are my learning goals specific to OD

1) Boat set up- rig!
2) gear changes versus temporary fudges
3) boat speed, slowing and position on starts


My long term goals are

1) a major win in a one design keelboat as crew

2) regular club wins in dinghies

3) a big win of an event, maybe distance. Askøy rundt again

4) to compete in a worlds in either sports boats or maybe a dinghy - bene 25 platu!

5) to re-establish the 59er as a classs in norway
