2011-02-22 13:24:18 - short north adriatic race
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.

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!!

:-)

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

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

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.

Red Eye 2026 - Georgian Bay

Welcome to the sensational scenic Georgian Bay of northern Lake Huron, the first area of the Great Lakes to be visited by Europeans in 1615, so former SOLer A2R informed us when he designed this geometrically tortuous course of 317nm criss-cross through its island maze. Originally known as Lake Manitoulin, in 1822 the bay was renamed after King George IV after his succession to the throne. This time we’ll take the very flashy Fareast 31R, which hopefully should keep you wide awake!

Welcome to the fourth of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International .

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!
