Hi.

I enjoyed creating it and comments are welcome.

garganey - thank you so much!!! The other evening I was watching a programme on television about Madagascar and the incredible creatures there and it occurred to me that SOL didn't have a race in that area at all so... your course is exactly what we need!!

I will set it up in SOL over the next wee while (no longer than 24hrs) so you can then have a look at it and we can, if need be, fine tune it :-)

Good morning garganey

The Comoros Cruise is now set up, with a new weathersystem and map for E Africa, so... to see how it looks just log in as the sol boat:

Username: sol
Password: sol

and then click here

Let me know if it looks good so we can then archive it before it is needed.

Do you have a preference for when it is raced?

@SP Trying to find information and it looks like the area now is between seasons and that the Kusi season starts in April but i dont know about windspeeds.

@RC
If you can move waypoint 2 a little bit north the course will be perfect.
I have no prefered race date you can find a gap in the calender for me.

garganey - Nzwani N now moved :-)

Please double check (if you wish).

I will be archiving your race tomorrow before the tow-back for the Malaren race start, so you have 12hrs or so to check!!

Thank you again for picking a fascinating destination!

:-)
