CKH - haven't got a race date.. it might be as soon as March, though, as its good for the race calendar to have a race in each of SOL's main timezones each month :-) That's the intention anyway!

You also need to select a suitable starting time.. the sort-of rule being trialled at the moment is:

Mon-Fri - the utc equiv of local 1800hrs
Sat-Sun - the utc equiv of lcoal 1000hrs

BUT race designers can pick the start-time for their races!!

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!
