Post annotated by RainbowChaser :
This post was moved from the thread Here is how to propose new races.
Hello,
find here my race proposal for mid-August.
In Mediterranean Sea will run a magnificent race in real life (Tracking avalaible on yellowbrick).
Start the magnificent pink beach of Mondello, arrival in the luxury of Monte Carlo with its skyscrapers.
I had planned to run it, but ......
Let run at least in virtual!

Palermo- Montecarlo Regatta IX Edition



thanks

Ciao Matoto - as you say you were going to race this in reality, would you please check through the official papers/information and see if there is any mention of a virtual version of this race. The reason I ask is that many of the prestigious races around the world are now "in bed with" one of the larger point-and-click sailing games and, if this is the case, Sailonline has to respect that position and adjust what it does accordingaly :-)

Grazie!

Of course, if there is no mention of it, would you feel comfortable asking the organisers if we, Sailonline, might have permission, in exchange for publicising their race for free, to use the official race name and sail a virtual race at the same time?

That would be perfetto!

Your proposal is very clear - thank you!

UPDATE: Matoto is in contact with the IRL organisers so... cross fingers (and paws) that we get approval to at least sail the course at the same time, even if we don't get permission to use the real name!

:-)
Hello SOLers, it would be nice to do this race in SOL ... : http://maserati.soldini.it/maserati-salpa-domani-per-la-transpac/?lang=en

FW all, see you.

Matoto - any information on this? It is in the SOL calendar but we need to choose a boat-type.

If the IRL organisers have not responded, that's fine.. we can call the race something completely different but we do need to know please!

Thanks.
FANTASTICO!!!!

Here is the (Italian original) reply Matoto received earlier today:

"
"Mi scuso per il ritardo, la mail del sito come spesso accade non è gestita direttamente da me ed è stata letta in ritardo.
Vi diamo l'autorizzazione a utilizzare il marchio e il nome della regata per realizzare la simulazione sul vostro sito.
Vi chiediamo in cambio di volerci aggiornare costantemente sugli sviluppi, inviandoci una comunicazione di quando e come funzionerà sul vostro sito la nostra regata, in modo da poterne dare conto anche nella cartella stampa e sul sito della regata stessa.
Una presentazione del vostro sito è altresì utile e richiesta.
Vi prego di utilizzare questo indirizzo mail (media@palermo-montecarlo.it) per le prossime comunicazioni.

Un saluto e buon vento!

.... via google translate "its a go"!!! hehehe
RC,
you'r kidding me!

Bravo Matoto!

You'll find the NOR in the site of the race, at the link

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!
