The ISAF Athletes Commission (AC) consists of 11 members each nominated by the sailors in their Olympic Class. The AC's role is to bridge the communication gap between the sailors and the sports governing body, ISAF.

To help us to better communicate with the sailors we have built a new website. The URL is: www.sailorvoice.orgit has information about the ISAF AC, London 2012, Events, News, Classes, useful links and most importantly a forum where you can have your say. New topics will be posted regularly so keep checking the site for new information, meeting notes, hero stories and more.

The AC Chairperson, Marceline de Koning says, 'There are currently many exciting changes about to happen within the sport. We need input from the sailors to make things perfect! We have set up this new website to enable sailors to have their say direct to us so please tell us what you want to happen'.

We especially want feedback on the ISAF World Cup, how you think Olympic sailing should look by 2020 and we want to know who you think the hero is in your class and why.

Help us to promote the sport by building heros that the media can follow and that youngsters can aspire to. Our goal is to make sailing one of the worlds highest profile sports.
