With our round up we must mention that Dart sail number 8000 was on display. It was positive to hear there was a lot of talk about new boats, the family and the future of Dart sailing looks to be as strong as ever with promises of ‘see you next year at the 2108 Dart 18 worlds @ Lake Como’ to be hosted by the Italian Dart Class Association. More news to follow on that and other things discussed at the International Dart Class AGM.
