Board » Sailonline Yacht Club » 2017 SMPF SCHEME

=======================================
2017 SMPF IS LOOKING FOR SPONSORS !!!!! :)
=======================================

As you all know the SMPF scheme (SYC Membership Pay Forward) has been a success in 2016.

At the end of some 19 races in 2016 one annual membership to the Sailonline Yacht Club was made available by a member of the SOL Community to the best finishing NON member in each race. The 19 winners are now happy members of SYC and compete for one year in all rankings.

The 2016 sponsors did either make their Sponsorship publicly known, or acted anonymously under the flag of the Sailonline Yacht Club.

The SMPF scheme will repeat in 2017, and the Board is now looking for Sponsors throughout the Club Community. The number of slots available is extremely limited, as in 2017 ONLY ONE SMPF race per month will be nominated and sponsored. For obvious organizational reasons we have already THREE sponsors for the first Quarter, whose Calendar had to be published by December 15th 2016. So: only nine places are still available.

By responding promptly to this invitation you will secure yourself a slot in the 2017 Sponsorship list , and if the number of available slots will be completed prior to your proposed sponsorship , you can rest assured that you will be given priority list for 2018.

All you need to do at this time is to write to: coord@sailonline.org , and confirm your willingness to support the SMPF scheme in 2017.

Some important information before you decide:

1)– Your participation to the scheme, should you want to remain anonymous, will be treated in fully confidential mode by the Coordinator and the Sailonline Nav Sim AB President, who will be the only two persons aware of your position in the scheme.

2)- This is by no means a solicitation to invest USD 35,00 into our platform, and you should not in any way feel obliged to adhere to the scheme.

3)- In 2017 the prerequisite of not being a SYC member for the past six months to become eligible for the SMPF scheme , in case of finishing first of non-members, has been raised to twelve months at the moment of finishing the SMPF race.

We look forward to hearing from you and to a well supported 2017 SMPF scheme!

On behalf of Sailonline NAV SIM AB

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!
