NOR for Maui Practice: 01/08 @ 1800 utc

Description: Fast* paced Slalom or 'Figure 8', using a mid course 'Gate'

Start Line: is between M5 and M1 - SW is OCS
This also comprises the 'Gate'.

Course:
M5-M1 Start Line
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Pass, heading NE, between Gate
M2 - Round to Starboard
M5-M1 Pass, heading SW, between Gate
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Finish Line

(Estimated) Time En-route (ETE): 2 hours
Course Length: 15 nm
Start/Finish Line & Gate:
- Length (Width) = 0.4 nm
- Bearing to Leeward (Port) Pin = 147.5
Course Bearings:
Downwind = 240
Upwind = 60

Notes:
  • OCS = On Course Side (ie wrong side at the start)
  • Line bearing is from M5 to M1
  • * Well... fast for 12 kn TWS!
  • Course bearings may be tweaked prior to the start to reflect minor changes in forecast winds
  • Gate just means: pass through the start/finish line each leg...

This course should reward pre-start attention & thought... (plan out your strategy before 1800!) ;-)

Enjoy!

AGage - thank you for a challenging yet perfectly timed race. I am afraid I think you probably should set more courses as I am hopeless at timing them!! :-D

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!
