	Bonjour Do! Merci pour votre commentaire - je vais le lire immediatement!! --------------------- Good morning Do! Thank you for your comments - I am going to read it immediately!!

	Voici mes conclusions: 1. Courdouan - bien sur. 2. Sans waypoint au Ile de Re, l'opportunite deja existe a passer par chaque cote. 3. Plus difficile a faire. Pour obtenir un trajet au nord du Drenec, on doit supprimer l'Ile de Groix. L'autre possibilite, que j'ai fait pour votre revue, est a creer un deuxieme waypoint au Phare des moutons, mais je crois ca serait trop complique a voiler! 4. L'arrivee a Brest qu'on peut voir au course maintenant (j'ai supprime le waypoint Pointe Mathieu) est la meilleure possible avec les regles du SOL ordi!! Donnez-moi votre avis, svp. ---------------------------- Here are my comments: 1. Courdouan - of course. 2. Without a waypoint on Ile de Re, passing it on either side is already permitted. 3. More difficult to do. To make the rhumbline go north of Drenec it is necessary to delete the waypoint of Ile de Groix. Otherwise, you can add a waypoint (which i have done for you to see) at phare des moutons, but I think this makes the course unnecessarily complicated to sail. 4. The arrival at Brest that you can see now (I removed the Point Mathieu waypoint) is the best that can be done within the restrictions of how SOL sets up races. Please let me know what you think? --- Last Edited by RainbowChaser at 2010-07-19 09:13:22 ---

	Hello RC I carefully read your conclusions regarding changes required and what suits me except the passage of the Isle of Re I therefore propose that as indicated in the attached image. Thank you for your attention, your kindness, and most importantly, your patience with me .... Attachments Atlantle_Challenge_mofification.jpg (69.1 KB)

	Salut Do! Je me suis trompee. J'ai pensee que vous avez voule permettre les bateaux a passer par les deux cotes de l'Ile de Re! Je vais le "fixer" plus tard!!! La seule chose a considerer... c'est que le trajet est tres restreint avec tous les waypoints, donc il existe la possibilite d'un grand concours de Royan au Brest avec les routers en avant est les autres derrieres... quelquefois un choix de route (rounding) donne un cours plus interessant!! Mais.. celle est votre trajet/cours, donc je le prepare comme vous voulez ---------------------------- Hi Do! My mistake, I had thought you wanted boats to be able to go both sides of the Ile de Re. I am going to fix that later on! The last thing to consider...is that the track is quite constrained because of all the waypoints, thus is may well be that there will be a procession from Royan to Brest with those using softward in front and the rest trailing behind...sometimes choice of rounding makes for a more interesting race. But, this is your race, so I will make it as you wish!! --- Last Edited by RainbowChaser at 2010-07-19 13:27:07 ---

	While this one is still up for viewing as sol, there are a few roundings in this race that have the potential to cause boil-overs in chat. The three that need the most thought are: Ouessant - is sitting offshore just enough that boats will sneak through. If the intention is to round the island we can nudge it a bit. If we're rounding shy of the the Island suggest moving it a bit further out so that the gap is clear. Ile de Sein and Drenec are both Island-Hop candidates with gains big enough to rile the fleet. Looks like quite the race. I like the 60' tri.

	Bien sûr - Il s'agit d'un cas de détail SOL plutôt que de conception. Pour éviter des virages contestés, je suggère que les waypoints à l'île de Sein et Drenec sont déplacé de l'autre côté. Sinon l'option existe de sauter. A Ouessant, la bouée est presentment toute proche du plage, avec option de raccourcir la route. Il peut être déplacé sur l'île ou plus au large en fonction de l'intention des planificateurs. Belle course et choix du bateau

	My English is what it is, I have trouble understanding the meaning of 76Trombone past interventions. I use Google translation to read or write on your site... For cons, I agree undo my last change to the island of Ré and leave the choice of moving to south or north of this island. Send me the new track please. thank you all

	Et voila!!! J'ai fait des petits ajustements pour clarifier le trajet et maintenant j'espere que tout est pret!! YAY!!! ---------------------------- Here you go!! I have made some tiny adjustments to clarify the route and now I hope that all is ready!! YAY!!

CA 500 2024

In 2019, the organisers of the California Race Week introduced a new longer distance event for the world’s very largest maxi trimarans in town that year intent on setting new records for the TransPac Ocean Race on its 50th anniversary. This CA 500, 500nm from San Francisco to San Diego, was repeated in 2023, but this year it will be an online only event, as it is a lot more straightforward to get a fleet of Maxi trimarans out on the virtual water, than in real life.

Neumayer Station to Biscoe Wharf 2024

It’s Autumn now in Antarctica, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. The penguins are starting to huddle together to keep warm and the sea ice is growing. Time to get back to Biscoe Wharf then, before the water becomes impassible. Including a detour past Argentina’s main two Antarctic stations, it’s only 1900nm, so, although we’ll be in a hurry, we will take the bigger, better ice-classed Paratii 2 once more, just to be sure!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
