Here's an update on the 12 Meter Charter...

You don't get anything if you don't ask. I asked for a better rate than the $175 & $195 pp they originally offered. I gave them a target of $150 pp. Their response was that in order to do that we'd have to look at their slower periods. or go down to a 2 hr cruise.

Their fringe periods are May & October which don't really fit in with our needs, but she also offered the week of July 4th which apparently is a relatively slow period for charters.... this is what she offered:

June 30-July 4).
If you would consider chartering sometime then, I would offer the following rates:
3 hour $1750 inclusive of crew or $150 per person with 12 on board.
4 hour $1950 inclusive of crew or $162.50 per person with 12 on board.

My suggestion then would be to have the event on Monday 30 June or Tuesday 1 July.

I hadn't seen this discussion until Tyger pointed me to it. We have America 2 and Lionheart (87 and 80 campaigns respectively) based in Greenwich, Western Long Island Sound. I will be seeing one of the guys involved with running the program for these boats this Saturday and will make some more inquiries. I know they do match racing when they can fill the boats. Details to follow. Photo of the boats attached.

I can make it work, count me in. Those showing up early can come do some practice sailing on the real Hirilonde. She will be moored in Wickford this summer.

Tobruk to Iskenderun 2026

Welcome to the fourth of our nine races across the length and breadth of the Magical Mediterranean Sea, and the second that is not in partnership with a real-life event, this time for good reason, which we won’t get into here. From Tobruk to Iskenderun it’s 670nm in length, with the added complication that the island of Cyprus will be in your way. Hoping, possibly forlornly, for plenty of downwind sailing, we’ll take the Lagoon 55 for the voyage!

Tasmania to Kamchatka 2026

Welcome to yet another all-new route. Tasmania to Kamchatka, part of our Ocean Championship and also the third leg of the ROW (Round the Old World) series. Be aware of the obstacles on the way, likely to split the fleet. It's like X:mas to X:mas, crossing the same waters, navigating the same archipelagos. This second race of OCQ2 2026 will be sailed in our revised 'version 2' Imoca 60 Foil. Race #2031
