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 :-)

Africa by Sea - Swakopmund to Maputo 2025


Time again to continue our exploration of Africa by Sea, which now takes us around the tip of the continent at Cape Agulhas and up the coast of South Africa to Mozambique’s marvellous Maputo, where we should find good anchorage in the bend of the Rio Espirito Santo (Umbuluzi) once we’ve cleared the 60m high Maputo - Katembe suspension bridge. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be glad to be sailing our comfortable and sturdy Xp-55, as we will certainly experience more headwinds!

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2025

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
