Need an ocean race in there somewhere. Best window looks like before the Mackinac. Or maybe run more legs of the Scandinavian Tour??
ShamPir - we certainly should have an ocean race... and we will be ScanTouring too.

Thanks!
So for in June we have had races that are hard to start on DC, or if you can they are too hard to sail on DC due to islands and so forth. This is also the same for the rest of this week, with the IMSYC race in the Med (always tricky) then Wednesday, leg 2 of Vancouver, which will be impossible to do, so I assume there will be no weekend race this week!! So it doesn't let the sailors that have to work or go to school much chance of being competitive.
Going by the races in the July calender, this is going to be the same!!
Any chance of having some open water races again!!!
mustang_sally - thanks for pointing that out. DC start-ability will be borne in mind as much as possible and... open water racing too :-)

Unfortunately we cannot prevent people posting as sol - however I shall no longer acknowledge anything posted in this way.

Would whoever keeps posting as sol go back to each post and edit it to show who is actually posting.
Personally I don´t prefer races with DC starts and DC finishes, then sailors can watch TV instead while the boats manage themselves (that´s not sailing). BUT, I do understand that DC can be the only solution for some sailors and I want them to feel welcommed too. :)

So why not rip off the Asian Sprints Leg3 (Bankok-Singapore Cat Fight) during July? ...and what happened with "TransAt 2011 - Newport RI to The Lizard, Cornwall"?
Hi TheHorn - thank you for your comments. Duly noted!

The Asian Sprints will complete their series by year end, that's a promise.

The TransAt had to be deferred due to the long-running of the St Lawrence race - there will be a TransAt this year, SOL always has one every year!!

I want us to do Bohusracet, I've created the race a long time ago. The real race is now on, it can be followed here http://www.blur.se/2011/07/01/bohusracet-live/
I also got an approval from the organizers before last years race

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.
