I'm with rage.
The current setup doesn't allow entering commands during the working day, so multiple day races would be a lot more suitable.

I understand the difficulties if you have to use delayed commands. Still I think that some more variation of courses would be nice. All offshore races are very much alike, so I think an archipelago race would be fun for a change.

It's not a matter of choosing one or the other, I'd like both!

We'll continue to do a mix of short, medium and long races. That way everyone can be happy!

It time for a warmer climate race. Fremantle to New Zealand. Not too much green stuff to hit into.
I enjoyed sailing the big cats so it would be fun to sail them again.

You guys from Australia / New Zeeland, perhaps you could start a new thread and brainstorm which race you wanna do? Also think about what race would attract more sailors from your home countries, which websites that would be interested doing a little PR or the races ETC.

I assume that racing alongside the VOR 08/09 is planned when that kicks of in the autumn? otherwise I may have come up with the best future race suggestion ;)

Current Races:

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
