PARABÉNS Vida_Maldita!! GEFELICITEERD bonknhoot!
Commentary
A moderate westerly greeted the SOL sprinters for this third race of the 2021 Sprint Series and the penultimate Q1 race. Some quick tacking along the south shore of the Great Dog determined the early leaders, but not the ultimate winner, as some subtle deviating from the rhumb line both on the fetch out to Doughboy and the broad reach home proved to be worth more, resulting in a handsome victory by 7 seconds for fastpassage39 from Vida_Maldita, who it turns out is not a newbie after all, but the redoubtable Antonio (Banderas, back from a visit to The Launderette, formally known as Zoe and before that Zezo).
SadlerSailing was also in the mix of course, finishing a close 4th behind bonknhoot, and in consequence is counting a pretty unassailable 1-4-4 for Q4 with one race to go. Stay strong, Sadler!

Serious chocoholics can even sign up for a tour, which includes a scrumptious three-course lunch spotlighting chocolate in every course.

CCA Delivery Cruise 1 2021 - Sandwich MA to Halifax NS
The Cruising Club of America invites you to join them on a (virtual) delivery cruise starting from Sandwich, Massachusetts, the oldest town on Cape Cod in the USA to Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, some 354nm away. Once we clear the tip of Cape Cod at Race Point our rhumb line course will be 70 deg T for 225nm across the Gulf of Maine to Cape Sable NS, so the best delivery departure window for sparing the crew and gear pounding into a northeast winter gale across Browns Bank will likely be following a frontal passage with strong favorable westerly winds. You may choose one of two boats, both tailored for cruising and new to Sailonline's boathouse, so flip a coin, study their Particulars sheets and make ready! You may start at any time after 1900utc on 8 February 2021 and you must arrive in Halifax by 4 March at 2300utc.

Haifa to Sao Vicente - 2021 ESRW - Leg 1
Welcome to bonknhoot’s alternative round the world race, there where it is wide, in six legs, following the setting sun – the ESRW Equatorial Sailonline Round the World Race; equatorial to differentiate it from more traditional antarctical circumnavigations. Expect then to cross the equator frequently, although on this 3500nm first leg from Haifa to the Cape Verdes in Ker 40s you should probably stay north of it. Being a proper ocean race, there are no intermediate waypoints, but please try to leave Tangiers to port anyway.
