	Thanks RC and Stoerte I agree a Full series with no drops makes it more fun and the winner will have to give a very good fight and will be more challenging because I don't think its fair if the winner only sails 6 races and the rest sail 10 races and second nearly beats 1st I have to go for no drops (sorry for the long message just trying to show what I think ) "Sometimes it is the people no one can imagine anything of who do the things no one can imagine." ~ Alan Turing

	Quite agree with Tazu, Rod and Stoerte (and Patrick)... No drops in this one. All results should count... sweat it out SOLers... I like to talk a lot... sometimes I even make sense, mostly not...

	OK folks, Leg 7 is now ready for preview/comments. Think all looks good - only q maybe is the finish in Darwin as part of the finish line is obscured. We can fix this by EITHER making the finish line shorter and moving it a tad so it just overlaps the bay entrance, OR moving it outside the bay. View please!! Leg 7 is now archived until needed To check the race, do the following: Log in as SOL: USERNAME: sol PASSWORD: sol and then click here P.S. Aaron's mom agrees that he would have been a "no drops" guy so.. the series will be ALL 9 results counting ___________________________ --- Last Edited by RainbowChaser at 2012-09-23 09:22:10 ---

	I've been tinkering with the draft blogpost for this race - an introductory blog that will set the scene - to see what I have come up with please click here and... of course, let me know what you think of it! We really do want to get this to be one of SOL's biggest ever participations, if possible! Deadline for comments - as I think we need to have this up on the homepage, shortly before Leg 1 opens for practice, the deadline for comments will have to be 1400utc tomorrow, Friday 20 September. That allows 24hrs!! As no comments posted or received, apart from corrections to the map of AUS, I will shortly be putting the intro blog on the Homepage! Let's start getting this show on the road!! _______________________ --- Last Edited by RainbowChaser at 2012-09-21 09:31:44 ---

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
