Open Snipe World Championship
The Open Snipe World Championship is an annual international sailing regatta for Snipe (dinghy), organized by the host club on behalf of the Internal Snipe Class Association and recognized by World Sailing, the sports IOC recognized governing body. The trophy awarded for the World Championship is Commodore Hub E. Isaacks and O'Leary Trophies. The class got recognised status by World Sailing in 1958.
Qualification
Entry is limited to the best national boats under an established quota based on the number of properly registered boat owners submitted to the SCIRA office by each National Secretary on the dues paid members for that year.
The following formula is used ("Registered Boats" must include: owner's name, address, fleet number and hull number to which the member has paid dues upon):
| Average Number of Registered Boats for the past 2 years | Entries |
|---|---|
| 1–5 | 1 |
| 6–15 | 2 |
| 16–30 | 3 |
| 31–50 | 4 |
| 51–100 | 5 |
| 101–200 | 6 |
| 201–300 | 7 |
| 300+ | 8 |
Additionally, the following skippers have an automatic entry to the championship that is not included in their home country's quota:
- Last World Champion, European Champion, Western Hemisphere & Orient Champion, Women's World Champion and first and second place in the Junior World Championship.
- Any former Commodore Hub E. Isaacks Trophy winning skipper.
- One additional skipper from the host country, providing that it does not have among its other representatives the Junior or Senior World, European or Western Hemisphere & Orient Champion.
- One additional skipper from the host fleet.
If the total entrants do not meet a total of 80 boats, those unassigned entry slots will be re-allocated to a pool of qualified entrants by SCIRA and the organizing authority.
