	Arthur said @ 2012-03-16 23:28:13: Hello, Somewhere, somehow, I heared that in some race in I think NZ/Aus there is a trophy for the boat that finishes just 1 place before last? Anyone? Hi! At some class championships I have seen the last place boat to do the full series go home with a brand new suite of sails. Boats like catamarans and small monohull (think Moore or Antrims). Cheers! Cheers! Shaking his head like a fool, the monkey realizes he can't swim.

	I have the honour to address Your Lordship upon a matter of some importance, regarding the esoteric subject of etymology. The award of a rank in the Garbage Scow hierarchy is not a matter of lowly commerce and money-grubbing, but is an achievement, a matter of merit, not to be purchased but to be earned. It is indeed "a Pearl Beyond Price". I would therefore beg of Your Lordship a small correction in the terminology associated with this most esteemed award, that it be referred to in all the attached (and considerable) verbiage as a PRIZE, not a 'Price'. Signed by Your Most Obedient Servant, Rod, Warrant Officer and Retired Sublieutenant, Late of Her Majesty's Royal Canadian Navy Reserve. If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

	In rule 8, could it be G-Rogue? I.E. Going Rogue. Instead of G-Renegade, since we have a boat of that name. --- Last Edited by sol at 2013-12-04 00:54:59 ---

	In Rule#8, "G-Rogue" it is… G-Scow is now a prize with no price…. --- Dernière modification par Tarco le 2013-12-06 00:07:16 --- --- Last Edited by RainbowChaser at 2014-08-19 19:13:04 ---

Round Greenland 2024

Just as Skip Novak was embarking for Kamchatsky, Amyr Klink also quietly slipped his Antarctica moorings and by now Paratii 2 has reached Reykjavik, where he invites you to join him on Leg 5 of our High Latitudes Series, a full 3650nm circumnavigation of Greenland. The course is clockwise round, so down the North Atlantic to Cape Farewell, then up the Davis Strait into Baffin Bay and on into the Arctic Ocean proper, where, hopefully and certainly virtually, Paratii 2’s special ice-breaker features will get us thorough the summer ice out onto the Greenland Sea and back to Reykjavik. Stay warm!

San Francisco to Ushuaia 2024

After a superlong RTW-leg3 (27 days), we have had a month to recover, and maintain our boat, in order to continue our around the world race. Leg 4, even longer than the previous, takes us from California to the world's southernmost city Ushuaia. No waypoints, even "the Ditch" is an option, but maybe a bit too much of a treat. With 6300 nm to go, the estimated duration of this race 29 days. This course is also the August edition of our ocean race championship.
