Please have a look through the calendar (and the .doc of races run in previous years) and if you think we need to run a specific race then say so!! Thanks.

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!!

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
