At some 2000 nm what type of yacht are you proposing and again what period of the year?

FYI, psail, in case you didn't see it before, here is a link to the Race Proposals Guide - you need to complete the invitation/description/boat choice (p14 of the Guide)... but otherwise from a SOAR/OPS perspective we can set up the basics with what you have done so far!

Hoy Jo and Go4It (sorry, don’t know your name).
My apologies for his late answer and also for my lack to comply with the SOL suggestions rules (basic).

A - My suggestions for the boats are:
a.1 - TP52;
a.2 - VOR70.

As a term of comparison the Trans Pac S. Francisco to Honolulu is aprox. 2.076 nm.

B - Period of the race:

b.1 - Summer time start: May to August, strong N/NW winds approaching Portuguese coast and HP system centered in Açores adding some uncertainty on his approach.

b.2 - Winter time start: October to December, Açores HP goes S/SE and tons of wind blowing in the Atlantic along the approaching LP systems.

Hoy Jo.

I revised the KMZ file (attached) for this race and I hope it's now in compliance with SOL manual.

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
