That was already done too :-) I happened to be reading emails when the thread-alert message came through! Can't promise to always be so prompt :-)

Anchoilla - I will shortly be closing your race as it is now set up and it needs to be archived.

As for the homepage information, if you look back through the different entries, perhaps we can come up with a nice picture (from your files or a photo) and then write a little about the area/course where we will be sailing.

It is not urgent for now but would be good to have it drafted and ready :-) Your proposal already has all the information, so the piece perhaps needs only to be a few sentences taken from that?

:-)

Once you have a draft I am obviously happy to help tidy it if you think that is needed.

HI RC,
I think we have the reace ready to be archived (thank you for giving me the opportunity to test it) Everything is all right.

I'm sending you some pics. Perhaps they are good to give an idea how the island is.
Here is a link to some Formentera's video, although there's not much sailing in it.

If you want, we may take some lines from the pdf I sent you in the beginning. But if you prefer it, tell me how long has to be the text and I write it talking about you think could be interesting.

Hi RC,
since the race is held in Europe, better it starts daylight.
Then, a good chance should be saturday 22th, at 9 or 10 UTC.
But if SOL thinks is better another date and hour, I accept it.
Thanks

Hope you are ready ... I will be putting your race on the homepage shortly!

We are, as you will have seen, starting on Friday morning (21st June) for two reasons (1) there is another race starting on Sunday and I would like your race to get good focus, and (2) the forecast is currently quite light and folks in other timezones need a chance to complete it over their weekends too!

I will now prepare something for the Homepage, linking to your introduction and artwork :-)

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!

Camel or Balloon - Khartoum to N'Djamena


As there is a lull in the calendar, your PRO has decided to risk an experiment – a balloon race over land, using a workaround to eliminate the recognition of water/land transitions. If it fails, the server may crash, and we abandon PDQ, hopefully after leg 7 of the ABS race to Suez has been decided, and before the start of the 1st OCC of Q4. Camel or Balloon – c 1000 nm from a field on the north bank of the Blue Nile at Khartoum to a field on the north bank of the Chari River at N'Djamena!
