Commentary

The Auckland to Russell Timed Race is based upon the PIC Coastal Classic that is buddied with our real-life NZ Multihull Yacht Club competitors; hence, it presents many of the same challenges as those races i.e. not BBQing, how far away to keep from the coast etc. But it also includes an additional challenge, in that you choose your start time and hence what winds you get to use! Ideally, this would have been 30+ knot winds from the Southeast, but alas, such winds failed to materialise in the entire 16 day window. In fact, much of the time was dominated by "dying breezes" and much of the remaining time had strong winds coming from the north, neither of which were conducive for setting a winning run.
That isn't to say, however, that it was completely devoid of favourable winds. There were two windows, both equally favourable, in which runs under 7.5 hours were set. The first of these had start times around 6am UTC on 10 March, which saw a provisional podium of FreyjaUSA/sassy63/calmxy. The second of these had start times around midnight UTC on 11 March, where none of the provisional podium sitters made an attempt here. Rafa and Kipper1258 improved on their times and WRmirekd, who didn't use the first window, set the fastest time, leading to the podium sitters changing to WRmirekd/FreyjaUSA/rafa. Well done!

Kamchatsky to Tromsoe 2024

Just before the light failed entirely in Antarctica, Skip Novak managed to get his Pelagic 77 out of the ice and north up the Pacific to Kamchatsky. The sun is shining (24/7) and not a penguin to be seen, and Skip believes the Norh East Passage is ice-free (sufficiently) to attempt it, so all aboard for a c 4250nm voyage from east to west across the top of Siberia, Russia and Norway to Tromsoe!
