Commentary

No reports on this one, but your roving reporter sharply remembers what went on. Soft balmy winds generally from ahead but sometimes from the sea reigned for the duration of the two weeks window, but early doors, over the course of Tuesday, 5 April, up to 9 knots of breeze out of the WSW developed, which as far as the 7-day WX stretched was as good as it was going to get, and the usual suspects, bar Kipper1258, went out for a spin, or rather an overnighter, with Pit8008 coming out on top as the wind faded away again.

Several days later, new WX's started to show that a much better window would likely develop for Friday, 15 April. And it did, but in the early hours of the UTC morning and those who had not checked the 2230z WX before going to bed (or out for the day) missed it badly, as the favourable breeze died away as quicky as it had come. Pit8008 missed the ideal depart time by slightly more than a minute , thus ceding his lead to Italy's Cippalippa, who had not featured Tuesday the week before. Starting at 4 seconds past midnight, Cippa recorded a time of 9:44:11, several hours quicker than the previous bests as the winds now got up to 11 knots and briefly more, again out of the WSW. Pit did it in 9:44:24, and Vida_Maldita starting 11 minutes later recording a 9:44:30, with Kipper starting for his one and only run a further 16 minutes later just missing the podium in 9:44:36. Well done all who spotted the moment and scrambled out onto the course as soon as they could!

Red Eye - Frisian Isles Trophy 2025

For our final “Red Eye” race, we invite you to cross the Noord Zee to the Wadden Zee, where a 160nm course around a few sandy islands raced on SOL only once before in 2010 awaits you. We don’t have a replica of Erskine Childers’ Dulcibella in our boathouse, and in any case if we took her out, we might well contract more than one “Red Eye”, so instead we’ll race our very own riddle of the sands in Farr 400s!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
