Hi all ;)

We at ITA_2011 have a small gift for you all . ;)

Gilles and I promised to ourselves that if we won the Tall ship race steering the Italian Navy Amerigo Vespucci school ship we would have tried to post a couple of pictures taken last year in fall in Venice , when Gil and I met and visited the Vespucci together . One of the pics shows Gil and I in front of the steering room , that we used succesfully during the past 48 hours ;) ;)
Andrea , aka ita10267 , was not with us in Venice , so we will pretend that when the pic was taken he was in the planning room depicting our race strategy . Antonio , aka ghibli and invaluable fourth member of team Italy was on leave this time , so we will pretend that he was permanently in the cellar drinking his usual tons of beer ;););)

Enjoy ! ..;) ;) ;)

see you all in the next tall ships race leg. ;)

Win

More info about Tall Ships Races finish procedure:

QUOTE
It is that if a vessel has not crossed the Finish Line (FL) by the time of the Time Limit, it submits its distance from the FL at the Time Limit. A Corrected Time is calculated for it and it has a place in the results list. (On several occasions the race has been won by a ship that never ever crossed the finish line.)

What happens is shown in paragraph 32.3
of Racing & Sailing Rules

The reason for this is based on the fact that the young crews who, in some cases, may have raced across the Atlantic Ocean or some similar distance, really don’t want to see just “Did Not Finish’ in the Results List after all their efforts. The formula was invented by a young crew member in one of our races in 1976 (a trans-Atlantic race).

For the current race the Time Limits are: 201900Z July, 201930Z July, 201945Z July & 202000Z July

AS	1.1927
B 	1.2555
C 	1.1991

For complete results (to date) please see attached spreadsheet. The slower boats did end up taking a hit with rapidly fading wind at the finish. Reminds me of IRL.

Great work.
And interesting too.

Antonio (zero)
and now... the Cruise in Company!!!

remember to check out the brochure

Each Guest Harbour has its own series of events organised so once we spot a ship in port on AIS we can, hopefully, find a webcam to view it!! :-D

I don't have complete weather for this race, but this should still be much closer than we'd get IRL.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!
