2009-01-29 09:05:10 - Antwerpen - Belfast
I have a question about the Antwerpen - Belfast race: When does the starting line close?

It would be nice to have this information in the race description for timed races, so we can estimate whether we have many tries or just a few and make smarter guesses for a good weather window.

Thanks,
Eddie - brainaid

The sea is lovely, dark, and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to sail before I sleep, And miles to sail before I sleep.

Good point Eddie I think we will close this one before the start of leg 5 so feb 14th at least, maybee sooner.

I think Jakob can inform you on that one, if its decided its indeed good to put the info in the description.

What do I need to do to have more than one try at a timed race.
I thought I was only allowed one entry per race

Regards

This is true for normal races.

During timed races you only may have one active boat at a time.
As soon as this boat gets across the finish you can re-enter the race and make another attempt.

The one boat rule is there to avoid gambling one more then one strategy at the same time.

Happy racing, jeroen

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!
