Merci flouflou - I have uploaded this file to the SOL Race Committee forum on YahooGroups (go to YahooGroups and find the group sailonline_rc ) so it will be in the queue to be loaded on to SOL!!

:-)
"dicover with flouflou, in a 170 nm (aproximatly) the islands situated around St Nazaire and the beautiful french coast" is good for the tilte ?? rc or more long???? I think a first 40 is a good boat, with a first 40, the race will be duration aproximatly 2 days or less.... is good????

flouflou - that loosk pretty good for a description to me ..unless you also wish to say a small something about St Nazaire (where we will start) and La Baule (where we will finish? I imagine both have a long history of yachting?

Thank you for confirming the boat type!

flouflou - OK!!! Well maybe you can ask in French chat if some of the IRL sailors there have an idea of what can be said to "publicise" your excellent race?
dicover with flouflou, in a 170 nm (aproximatly) the islands situated around St Nazaire and finish the race on the beautiful beach of baule...


Sorry rc, i have no much idea
"This race starts in one of the largest port in France, Saint Nazaire it continues through ile d'yeu, belle ile, ile groix et l'ile d'houat and it ends on one of the most beautiful beaches France in La Baule".

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
