2020 Q4 SRC Review

It is not big news to note that Coronavirus19 has caused a second spike in the Western world but now that we, in the North, are out of the sailing season there has been little demand for replacement virtual races or at least they have been accommodated in our existing calendar with one big exception. That exception comes from the Royal Cape Yacht Club selecting SOL for two virtual Cape Town to Rio races in 2021 and 2022 and then being the virtual partner for the real race in 2023. The whole SOL team is delighted in being invited to host these virtual races with the first virtual start occurring at 1200 UTC on 2nd January 2021.

Reverting now to the more mundane, in summarising the results for the Series racing in the 4th Quarter 2020, they are as follows.

Ocean Series
The three races for this Series were the last leg of the SOL Round the World race from Uruguay to near Lisbon in our 125’ Catamaran, joining the Gray Whales for their migration North to South and then sailing the Christmas Island to Christmas Island race in our OD65 v3 that may need to be replaced with a bit faster yacht next year.

Leg 4 of the Round the World race was won by batatabh, followed by Fisky and sassy63.

    Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


    Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
