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

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
