OMRA held its 2025 AGM @ Goodwood Aerodrome. To present the trophies to our 2025 Champions, discuss rule changes for 2026 and agree next years race calendar. There are minimal changes to rules for 2026, but in summary: - X Class to target 15min run time to push forward the technology - Many of the competitors boats can reach this run time already, but will be adjusted on conditions if required. - XS Class to run a 'minimum' 10 min race and introduce a regulated battery energy limit of 275Wh - Many boats can achieve this already and again looking to push the class forward bringing in a specified power capacity. - C Class to increase max engine capacity to 35cc - In line with a changing engine market, 32-35cc engines are more common and more affordable since the C class for catamarans was originally introduced. There was some minor changes to race procedure and improved First Aid requirements.
