Posted by Gilles Posts 127 Registered at 2009-07-18 11:05:22	2017-03-03 17:57:41 - First SOL meetup in north Europe
	UPDATE! Just recognized the vote are anonimous :o! Please left a short comment saying who will join( I am guessing the 4 eheh) and WHERE you would like to make next! (or contact me if you want to stay anonimous of course) Dear friends, I am glad to invite you to the first SOL meetup in north Europe! the choosen location is in DK as it is easier to link to the event to the biggest regatta around the island of Fyn http://palbyfyncup.dk/ The circuit is well known to all the Soler as we raced few times around that island. The location is also easily to reach with plane, car, train, boat. To accomodate the higher number of partecipants there are 3 basic options: 1) Only dinner (on 26th or 27th May) 2) Dinner + Racing weekend with Soler´s boat. 3) Dinner + Racing weekend with a charter boat. Option 1) is open to all the SOLers that want to have a great evening Option 2) is open to all the SOLers that will join with her/his boat and would like to enter IRL race and take some SOLer on board.(cruise in company style). You will get a first class crew of experienced SOLer and expenses cover for the race entrance. ( to be shared between crew on board) Option 3) is open to all the SOLer that do not have a boat but would consider to charter a boat (40ft class) for the weekend. All expenses will be shared between friends on board. To give your comment, ask question(s), submit your NOT binding feedback on which option you would like to follow please contact me. As for privacy reason I do not have access to the SOL maildatabase please share this invitation to all your friends. Any question, anytime to me. Best regards and goodwind waiting your reply.

	Gilles It would be really fun to meet other SOLers in DK. I will think hard about this. Don´t think I´m intersted is sailing (I´ve done 9 Gotland Runt, so it´s not that), but I have to see what I will be doing at the time you have suggested. I will be back ) Robert Robert

	Considering joining you guys for that quite little drink 25/26/27 May. What would be the airport, how far from the venue (hire car, train, taxi ??) and where might we kip?

	was not a surprise that the most answer I got were "no boat?, no party!" Accidentally the 2 options that I have to grab a boat has sinked in the last weeks.... So I have to postpone this on a next future. Could be that I will go there anyhow as there is holiday in Germany. However the plan B is the following: I will attend to the presentation of SOL during the buddyup with the Silverrudder, same location, end of September. The local SOL crew is already up and running for that. So stay tuned, there WILL BE a SOL party in DK this year! Good wind Gilles --- Zuletzt bearbeitet von Gilles am 2017-05-13 15:03:13 ---

	Just remember... The Silverrudder is the 22. September and placed in Svendborg, only 70 km south-southeast of Bogense. All SOL'ers are welcome to join with the SOL team. Just bring your computer, laptop or whatever. We have our own stand, our own internet connection and will be racing against the IRL fleet with an X-99.

Raja Muda Selangor 2026 - Port Klang to Pangkor

Sailonline is delighted to be able to offer online sailors an opportunity to once again compete in all three of the offshore races of the Raja Muda Selangor International race week, organised by the Royal Selangor Yacht Club in association with the RORC, and commencing with a 75nm trip from Port Klang to Pangkor. This year we will be racing this race, and the other two, which together will count towards our Sailonline Raja Muda Series (RMI), in X-332s.
Be careful at the Pangkor Island marina – there are tidal currents of 1-2 knots, which make mooring to floating docks quite tricky.

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback

Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
