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?

	Billund airport is served by Ryanair and is in the middle of DK about 40 mile away... regarding kip, let see what we can organize

	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.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!

New Ice Age 2026 - Neumayer Station to Scott Base

For a second-half of long-distance ice-boating, we take our DNs to Antarctica for a circumnavigation of that continent in two legs clockwise, in harmony with the prevailing winds (such as there are), beginning with a race from Germany’s Neumayer Station to New Zealand’s Scott Base. It’s about 3500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!
