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!!

:-)

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..

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

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


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!
