	Dear all sailors in AFR 2011 !! Thank you for your response on this Race. I am very sorry, not having being as much online, as I had planned - very far from!! Unfortunally, I was called away, Saturday 10 a.m., because my Father-in-law was very sick, and actually passed away at 3 am, Sunday morning. Therefor, you missed a lot of information during the course - also, I was not able to wake up my students, because of very little online access. I hope you will join again next year, where we will start later, friday (like 1800 UTC). Again. Thank you all FRI Hawk54.

	Hi Hawk so sorry to hear about your father-in-law. The winds weren't conducive to an active race.. maybe we run it in the spring-time rather than end-summer next year? The course is a really excellent one and, picking a time of year with strong(er) winds should make the race a lot more challenging.

	TYVM RC. Oct/Nov next year we can run AFR again. Actually I was a little dissapointed about the course in the beginning, but during the Race, I found that it did have several fine points. Adding some wind, and it is an OK Race I think. /Hawk54

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
