2013-04-15 17:49:25 - Nine islands, nine lights
Hi, SOLers,
I want to propose you a race around the small island I live, work and sail: Formentera.
Herewith I upload a pdf with the general concepts of the event.
I do hope SOLers accept to enjoy, virtually at least, our beautiful waters.
Please, ask me whatever you want to know about the project or the island itself.
Thank you for your interest.
Blow good winds for SOLers
Anchoilla

Hola Anchoilla - that really has to be one of the best ever race proposals I have had the honour to view! It is just brilliant... Gracias for all your work and preparation.

Just one small thing - please would you make the waypoints in Decimal Degrees to save me having to do that (to set them up in SOL they need to be Decimal Degrees and not Degrees Minutes Seconds).

:-D BRAVO!

Thanks elbetico, thanks Claudio.

I have translated the waypoints to Decimal Degrees and made some changes. I do hope you'll like this version.
Thanks.

Still as fabulous as when I first read it. It is such a pleasure to receive a quality race proposal :-)

We have a race starting this evening and I am setting up another for the weekend at the moment so I will set this up for preview over the next few days so we can make sure it looks good in SOL and then we can pick a date, based on the SOL Racing Year when it will be good to run. Do you have specific dates in mind for it?

Thank you again, RC.
I think a good date could be June 22th, starting at 8.00 UTC. It is week end and the race could take about 24h long.
But the date SOL team choose sure will be right.
