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!

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
