New IOM USA Class Secretary

My Brazilian Worlds Michel 1219

Gary Boell is asking that USA IOM skippers “weigh in” on either of the two resolutions submitted during the 2019 IOM meeting to get a feel for how our class stands. This is not a ballot to vote on – just a request for feedback by the end of October..

Please comment on this post with your thoughts (USA IOM Skippers Only). Two documents are linked below with background information.
