Posted by Anchoilla Posts 12 Registered at 2011-04-22 15:47:56	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.

	La regata me parece muy entretenida, Anchoilla. Espero que la Administración de SOL acepte tu propuesta.

	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). BRAVO!

	Thanks for your kind words, RC. For sure I translate the waypoints to Decimal Degrees. Thanks elbetico, thanks Claudio. --- Last Edited by Alfonso Biescas at 2013-04-15 21:26:07 ---

	I have translated the waypoints to Decimal Degrees and made some changes. I do hope you'll like this version. Thanks. Ancho Attachments 02.Nine_islands.pdf (1.5 MB)

	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.

Halifax to Hooper Bay 2024

And now it’s Autumn in the Arctic, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. Having receded all summer, ice is starting to return to the numerous straits and bays of Canada’s North West Passage. High time then to set off on our last leg of the High Latitudes Series from Halifax in Nova Scotia to Alaska’s Hooper Bay. It’s 3850nm and we need to hurry, so we’ll take the Pelagic 77!
