Carta del Comodoro<br />

Diego Peralta Ramos<br />

Comodoro<br />

<strong>El</strong> año último finalizó con una noticia que nos impactó<br />

amargamente: el 27 de diciembre nos dejó nuestro<br />

querido Comodoro Juan V. Tedin algunas horas después<br />

de haber encabezado, con su natural bonhomía, el asado<br />

de fin de año con el personal del <strong>Yacht</strong> Club Argentino.<br />

Pero como estamos seguros de que el querido Juan, con su<br />

incansable empuje y enorme optimismo, hubiese querido<br />

que la labor que venía realizando la Comisión Directiva no se<br />

detuviera, es que encaramos este <strong>2018</strong> con energía, porque<br />

creemos que es la mejor forma de rendirle homenaje y de recordarlo<br />

como lo que siempre fue: un emprendedor y un factor<br />

de cambio permanente.<br />

Y este ejemplar que tienen en sus manos es una muestra de<br />

esto. La revista <strong>El</strong> <strong>Yacht</strong>, que se viene publicando desde hace<br />

29 años, tiene ahora un formato más moderno y elegante; y no<br />

sólo eso, sino que ha cambiado a una periodicidad semestral,<br />

porque creemos que es una buena forma de reflejar en sus<br />

páginas la intensa actividad tanto del Club como de nuestros<br />

consocios en los distintos ámbitos.<br />

Además, en esta primera mitad del año el Club ha tenido<br />

numerosas actividades en todas sus áreas. Por ejemplo, en<br />

marzo recibimos en una visita no oficial al rey Harald V de<br />

Noruega en su paso por nuestro país; días más tarde llegaron<br />

los siete buques participantes del Velas Latinoamérica <strong>2018</strong><br />

entre los cuales se encontraban nuestra Fragata Libertad y el<br />

buque Gloria, de Colombia, al cual recibimos con salvas y una<br />

comitiva encabezada por el embajador de ese país.<br />

Last year started with an announcement<br />

that sourly affected us: on December<br />

27, our loved Commodore Juan V. Tedin<br />

left us some hours after having led,<br />

with his natural kindheartedness, the end of<br />

year barbecue with the staff of the Argentine<br />

<strong>Yacht</strong> Club.<br />

But as we are sure that Juan, with his tireless<br />

drive and enormous optimism, would have<br />

wanted to continue with the work the Executive<br />

Committee was performing, is that we face this<br />

<strong>2018</strong> with energy, because we believe that it is<br />

the best way to pay him homage and remember<br />

him as what he always was: an entrepreneur and<br />

a permanent factor of change.<br />

And this copy you hold in your hands is a sign<br />

of this. The <strong>Yacht</strong> magazine, that has been<br />

published for 29 years, has now a more modern<br />

and elegant format; and, what is more, has<br />

changed to a biannual regularity, since we are<br />

sure it is a good way to reflect in its pages the<br />

intense activity of the Club and of our fellow<br />

members in the different spheres.<br />

In addition, in this first half of the year, the Club<br />

has had a high number of activities in each of<br />

its areas. For instance, in March we received<br />

the unofficial visit of the King Harald V of<br />

Norway in his way through our country; some<br />

days later, the seven boats that participated in<br />

the Latin American Sails <strong>2018</strong> arrived, among<br />

which was our Liberty Frigate and the Gloria<br />

ship, from Colombia, which we received with a<br />

salute and a procession led by the ambassador<br />

of this country.<br />

As regards the art of navigation, the sailboat<br />

Cippino of our fellow member Daniel Sielecki<br />

and manned by several members of the YCA, is<br />

performing again the classic sailboats circuit in<br />

Europe and it already won Les Voiles d’Antibes,<br />
