[ NOTIFIED × ]Membership dues for 2024 update !!
Dear Soling Sailors, 

As result of the past meetings, something you must consider for the future, is that the ISA decided to increase its membership dues, the objective is to reach a total of 200 euros for a complete team, but not during 2024, the first year there will be an increase of 40 euros in total.

For the upcoming years more changes will occur if necessary.

Therefore :

- Boat registration fee (stickers) will cost 55 euros

- Individual Membership fee (cards) will cost 35 euros

The objective is to maintain balanced the ISA accounts despite the increasing costs in general world wide.

Best winds,

Matias
