Hi RC,

Calendar is looking very good.
I just checked the start time for the Kapiti-Chetwodes race. As it stands the race will start 8 am Saturday morning NZ time. Most kiwis will be sailing on Saturday's. Could we move the start time too the 2nd October 0600 please. This will mean a 7pm start Saturday for us Kiwi's. By then most will be home, exhausted and drunk from our day's sailing :)

Cheers NZL_undercover
Tazu - to have a link to the SOL calendar on the homepage is a nice idea. Perhaps lets wait a little while until we are satisfied that the calendar format is working and then we can ask the SOLgods if a link on the homepage is doable. It will be essential to keep the calendar always up to date - nothing is more irritating than visiting a website that claims to have a calendar only to find it is months or sometimes years out of date!! So if there is a dynamic link on the homepage, the target will always have to be the most current!

In the meantime, if folks find it hard to get to the Races Forum they can always click on the Homepage Races Tab/race archive and see the races that are already set up :-)
NZL_undercover - done!

See attached!

I have also added a bright green (for GO!) border to each cell that contains a start date... that seems to highlight the starts pretty well.

What do you all think??

Nice work RC thank you :)
A little tweaked and now clickable link instead of obvious attachment!

Nice work on the calendar.
Just 2 things on the September calendar. First the week numbers and the dates don't match. Sept 17th is a Friday in week 37 not week 38. Could be a bit confusing. Also delete the attachment for august.
Keep up the good work.

Hi Mike - thank you for your comments! I have now corrected the week numbers (for September and the other months) but unfortunatley no-one seems to know how to delete attachments... maybe I should just make a new thread called Current Calendar!!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
