2009-01-29 09:05:10 - Antwerpen - Belfast
I have a question about the Antwerpen - Belfast race: When does the starting line close?

It would be nice to have this information in the race description for timed races, so we can estimate whether we have many tries or just a few and make smarter guesses for a good weather window.

Thanks,
Eddie - brainaid

Good point Eddie I think we will close this one before the start of leg 5 so feb 14th at least, maybee sooner.

I think Jakob can inform you on that one, if its decided its indeed good to put the info in the description.

What do I need to do to have more than one try at a timed race.
I thought I was only allowed one entry per race

Regards

Peter

This is true for normal races.

During timed races you only may have one active boat at a time.
As soon as this boat gets across the finish you can re-enter the race and make another attempt.

The one boat rule is there to avoid gambling one more then one strategy at the same time.

Happy racing, jeroen

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
