Rather short notice, but I've quickly created a kml for it. (Not 100% sure about the waypoints).

HTH,

This race is already set up and in the race calendar.. because SOL is not permitted to use the same name as an IRL race as they are mostly copyrighted these days and subject to brand sponsorship etc.. the SOL race is in the calendar as Ron Cazar (spanish for Rum Hunt) :-)

Thanks Schakel but race is already setup and hot-to-trot!!! :-D

Salut filou - this post is in the General Discussion Forum.. if you go back to the Board menu you will see a Forum called Race Calendar - it is in there you will find links to the current calendar and to the drafts for the next two months. January will appear shortly.

SOL will be racing its St Malo to Guadeloupe Ron Cazar starting 1 November at 1000utc. The IRL start is 31 October but as you will see from the SOL calendar, on that day we have the Boston timed race still running, a short/fast Swedish archipelago race and (possibly) people still finishing a race in Italian waters.

The fact the IRL boats are a little ahead of us should make our race all the more interesting!

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!

It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. To give each leg of the ROW a bit of length we'll try to hug the coasts as little as possible, so starting in Iceland our first leg of the series, which will also be the final leg of our Quarter 1 Ocean Championships takes us 7200nm to the Falklands, the full length of the Atlantic end to end. To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.
