A large event like the GIDJM has a completely different cost structure than an IDJM, which is carried out for a single class directly on the club premises. This is due to the higher logistical effort as well as the costs for material, moorings, boat charters and much more.

No, that is not true! An overview of all participating classes shows that the entry fees for World and European Championships in the classes range from 200 EUR (single-handed) to 500 EUR (double-handed).

For each boat a RFID security wristband will be issued, the deposit of 5 will be collected with the entry fee. When returning the wristband at the end of the GIDJM you will get the money back. In some classes large starting fields are expected, so that sailing will be done in groups. For the colored fleet ribbons a deposit of 5 will be charged as well. This amount will also be refunded upon return.

Das Meldegeld deckt nur einen Teil der Kosten der Meisterschaft.

Am Beispiel der 29 er Klasse ist auf der Folgeseite die Berechnungsgrundlage bei 80 Meldungen, sieben Tagen Veranstaltung ( und fünf Wettfahrttagen dargestellt (bei 250,- € Meldegeld). Wie man sieht ergibt sich eine Unterdeckung von 333,- €. Auch wenn man die Kosten für Personal (Registrierung, Helfer*innen, Geländesicherung) ausnimmt und berücksichtigt, dass die Preise und Giveaways durch direkte Sponsoren übernommen werden, verbleibt eine Unterdeckung, die durch Förderung der Stadt Kiel, des Landes Schleswig Holstein, weitere Partner/Sponsoren und den Kieler Yacht Club gedeckt werden muss.The entry fee covers only a part of the costs of the championship.

Using the example of the 29 class, the calculation basis is shown on the following page with 80 entries, seven days of event ( and five race days (with 250,- € entry fee). As you can see there is a shortfall of 333,- €. Even if you exclude the costs for personnel (registration, helpers, site security) and take into account that the prizes and giveaways are taken over by direct sponsors, a shortfall remains, which must be covered by funding from the city of Kiel, the state of Schleswig Holstein, other partners/sponsors and the Kieler Yacht-Club.
