Aetheria said @ 2010-01-14 19:22:56:
While the "Super Mac" is not run on an annual basis it is actually run in conjunction with the races sponsored by the Port Huron Bayview Y.C. & the Chicago Y.C.

The Yachts involved in this compound event simply race from the finish of the first race to the start of the other one.

It would be possible therefore to run this as a composite of three legs without any conflicts
-------------------
That would solve the problem indeed.

We already have the Chicago-McKinack in the SOL database. Direfloyd, may I kindly suggest that you create the second leg, McKinack-Port Huron, and the return race, Port Huron-Chicago?

By the way, it is relatively easy to 'reverse' a race in SOL. That means that Port Huron - Chicago could easily be reversed into Chicago-Port Huron.

Hi Tuze, hi Tempest,

The race committee would like to start the Rio Circuit Race on Friday 19 February. Is that OK for you, Tuze? What starting time would you suggest?

The race committee would like to start the Frisian Isles Race on Saturday 27 February. Starting time between 8:00 and 12:00 UTC. Is that OK for you Tempest?

Regards,

Francois

Hi Francois

Starting time between 0800 and 1200 UTC is fine by me for Frisian Isles
Hope you can guarantee some nice winds as well.

thanks
Kees(Tempest)

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

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!
