and others
The name "Division VI" originates from the NAHCA (North American Hobie Class Association) maps of USA, divided up for the purpose of promoting regional catamaran racing between local clubs.
Through the work of the member clubs, Division6 organizes a calendar of catamaran racing events around Texas. As an umbrella organization, Div6 also promotes and publicizes other catamaran sailing opportunities on behalf of individual fleets.
Div6 currently operates with several officers who volunteer and are selected among the represented fleets. Commodore (organizer), Vice-Commodore (properties manager), and Treasurer and membership. Main tasks of the organization is to (1) publish a schedule of events, (2) support fleet/club races with marks, radios, flags. (3) Manage insurance for the regattas and (4) collect fees to maintain equipment.
At this time, there is not really a Div6 web page, but there is an emailer (Googlegroups) for communication purposes. And this www.AustinCats.net site is used to publish event information.
