Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals » Bornholm Race 2012

A lot of SOLers have been asking that we acknowledge one of N Germany's classic summer races - part of the July Warnemunde Woche festival and regatta - and this is the race around the island of Bornholm.

Thanks to K3 we have the race set up and now ready for preview. It is a simple race but if you see any snags with the setup please do say so!

To preview, log in as the sol boat with these credentials:

Username: sol
Password: sol

and then click here

The Start (start time (1st group) July 9th 11:05 UTC) can be seen at webcam

Several boats are equipped with tracking units. I'll post the adresses as soon as I get them.

ciao
Bernd (K3)

K3 - excellent, thank you. Do you anticipate enticing any new SOLers to join in this one?
Let's hope for some new germans.

By the way: Brainaid Ocean Racing has it's routers for the real boats in steam already.

Ciao

Ciao K3 - not sure what you mean by "in steam"?? Please would you provide a url for what you have found? Thanks!
Confusion at Warnemünde!

First the officials said Bornholm has to be rounded clockwise (!) and now the official saiiling instructions are published and the rounding is again not mandatory (see links, point 7.1, 7.5) as all the years before.

Eddie does the routing for one or more real boats. The results are not public.

The tracking of some boats will be available at:

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
