Amend Rule 34.1 so that rather than a number (p) of boats to go to semi finals/finals, to be published in advance, the numbers in the finals are fixed:
>46 = 40
35-45 = 30
25-34 = 20
20-24 = 15
<20 = 10

With 10 going on to final.

Plus remove restriction on no more than 6 changes in course.

CP, I'm pretty certain that the removal of the restriction on no more than 6 changes in a course was passed but thought that the number of boats to go to semi finals/finals was left as it is, as S&S had an issue with water time at the Paul McCankey which is one of the few Prem events that uses this race format. Was this not the case or was I in a different meeting?

Removal of minimum number of changes accepted nem con (no one said no)

Amendment to specify number getting promoted failed with 7 votes for specifying the number of paddlers progressing and 36 votes against with 8 abstentions. The motion duly failed.

Thank you, someone was awake, Sorry to mislead you all
