my first race proposal, so pls comment plenty :-)
i'd like to do this in a seacart, cause it will be my first RL race as skipper in a 28 foot Tri.

url of the real thing is:

mmartin an excellent first race proposal - perfect format with all information included.

The only "snag" is using the name of a real race and racing it on SOL at the same time as that real race.

Would it be possible for you to approach the chairman/race organiser of the yacht club running the IRL race and ask,in principle initially, if they would be prepared to let SOL use the name of their race for SOL's virtual copy of it?

If so, then we could perhaps buddy-up with the club, just as we are doing at the moment with SSANZ and the Round North Island Race. Nothing financial involved, merely each promoting the other on the website.

Let me know how you get on or if the organisers would like to know more about SOL.

thanks alot,

The only "snag" is using the name of a real race and racing it on SOL at the same time as that real race.

oh yes, i see, i can remember the fastnet race disaster...
yes, i intended to copy the race, but no, i didn't want to schedule it at the same time.
instead i thought of 'any time soon', so i can race it as a preparation :-)

so i can certainly try to contact the officials, maybe even with the help of the italian SOLers when i inquire about the enforcement of the ISAF Skipper YC rule (i'd like to enter SOL as my club).
But i'd like to run the race earlier.
i'll remove the name, and reference, and maybe move some waypoints around,
would that be sufficient?.

mmartin - we wouldn't need to move the waypoints.. no-one can copyright destinations .. but we do need a new name and we can certainly race it sooner than the real thing! In this case we do not need to buddy with the organising association!!!

But... if it happens to come up in conversation then it would be fabulous to add a European club to our buddy list!!

:-)

OK then, pls find attached the proposal for a race from the italian coast along Istria and back again :-)
Pls consider to run it in a seacart.

mmartin - I am happy to say that your race is now set up in SOL and as a result of creating it we now have an Adriatic weathersystem in place!!

To look at your race, just log in as the sol boat:

Username: sol
Password: sol

and then use the following url:

http://www.sailonline.org/windy/run/366

let me know what you think??!!

:-D
let me know what you think??!!
looks great, i'd shure like to race it that way...
the rounding of susak can be done in both directions, but that does no harm i think.
Also the distance is somewhat around 190 nm, which is also fine with me, and distinguishes the race from the RL race ;-)
Thanks
Ups, of course that was my post,
never forget to logout after testing the sol boat.
Thanks for checking out your race. It is now archived until we want to race it!

Do you have any preference as to when you would like to have your race run? Have a look at the draft April calendar in the Race Calendar Forum and let me know what date/day and start-time you would like.
i'd like to race it asap for example Friday 1st of April hehe :-D
any weekend starting friday and ending Sunday would be great.

thx for setting that up, i very much appreciate your work here..

Lago Viedma Ice Race 2025


Less than one third of the land mass of the planet is to be found in the southern hemisphere, and most of that in tropical to temperate latitudes or in Antarctica, so it is difficult to find good natural ice to race DNs anywhere in August! However, if you take an internal flight from Buenos Aires to Aeropuerto Internacional Comandante Armando Tola de El Calafate by the shores of Lago Argentino, it’s only a 100km taxi ride to Lago Viedma, where we have set out a few beacons on the ice for you for a quick 80nm blast around the four corners of the lake, and as it’s so remote here, no need to worry about breaking the solitude of monks or suffering PL!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Baia de l'Oiseau to Carnarvon


How ever shall I return to report with clarity to my Great Sultan – asked Sinbad. It needs be told this island and all its fables shall be expunged from the annals of every thousand and one night. The wind howls – and sun be none (it’s Winter, Sin’bro, ed.) – and all days from the west, but let’s launch anyway and see if we can work our SOL Balloon north as the days pass aiming for Asthralaya, where The Mahabharata tells the ancients once tested mighty weapons, about a quarter and a million qasbah away (2500nm, ed.), perhaps one month.
