2010-07-20 21:22:50 - Re: CHI-MAC PRACTICE RACING - 1. Rabbit Start for Chi-Mac Practice Racers
The Rabbit Start was messed up due to the fleet of hounds milling around and not being in the right place at the right time... so a regular practice race was run instead.

Results of this are

1. Tazumaki (GER)
2. Svein (NOR)
3. Glynnwi (GBR)
4. RainbowChaer *GBR)
5. Matoto (ITA)
6. newsartist (USA)
7. robert1 (SWE) (to finish)

TIME: 1800utc

COURSE: Round M3 (leave to your STARBOARD) - Round M2 (Leave to your STARBOARD) - Finish

FINISH: Cross the line between M1 and M5

Attached is a simple .jpg of the course!

EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN THE RACE AT ANY TIME!!

N.B. Minor adjustments to the course will be made if the winds vary significantly between now and race time!!

SEE YOU THERE!!
----------------------------------
RULES FOR RUNNING STARTS
(paraphrased by newsartist

The gun fires at a known time. You must cross between the Mark Boats to start. Thou Shalt Not Cross the Line before the BOOM!

If you cross early, and are protested, you must circle around either end of the line (Marks,) and cross again properly.

You may choose to hang close at TWA=0, or a slow angle, or to charge in at full speed. A pocket calculator is handy to judge time to the line!

Except for not being in front of the Line in the last ten minutes of Prestart, there are no restrictions on where you may sail before the gun.

Tobruk to Iskenderun 2026

Welcome to the fourth of our nine races across the length and breadth of the Magical Mediterranean Sea, and the second that is not in partnership with a real-life event, this time for good reason, which we won’t get into here. From Tobruk to Iskenderun it’s 670nm in length, with the added complication that the island of Cyprus will be in your way. Hoping, possibly forlornly, for plenty of downwind sailing, we’ll take the Lagoon 55 for the voyage!

Tasmania to Kamchatka 2026

Welcome to yet another all-new route. Tasmania to Kamchatka, part of our Ocean Championship and also the third leg of the ROW (Round the Old World) series. Be aware of the obstacles on the way, likely to split the fleet. It's like X:mas to X:mas, crossing the same waters, navigating the same archipelagos. This second race of OCQ2 2026 will be sailed in our revised 'version 2' Imoca 60 Foil. Race #2031
