my first race proposal, so pls comment plenty :-)
i'd like to do this in a seacart, cause it will be my first RL race as skipper in a 28 foot Tri.

url of the real thing is:

mmartin an excellent first race proposal - perfect format with all information included.

The only "snag" is using the name of a real race and racing it on SOL at the same time as that real race.

Would it be possible for you to approach the chairman/race organiser of the yacht club running the IRL race and ask,in principle initially, if they would be prepared to let SOL use the name of their race for SOL's virtual copy of it?

If so, then we could perhaps buddy-up with the club, just as we are doing at the moment with SSANZ and the Round North Island Race. Nothing financial involved, merely each promoting the other on the website.

Let me know how you get on or if the organisers would like to know more about SOL.

thanks alot,

The only "snag" is using the name of a real race and racing it on SOL at the same time as that real race.

oh yes, i see, i can remember the fastnet race disaster...
yes, i intended to copy the race, but no, i didn't want to schedule it at the same time.
instead i thought of 'any time soon', so i can race it as a preparation :-)

so i can certainly try to contact the officials, maybe even with the help of the italian SOLers when i inquire about the enforcement of the ISAF Skipper YC rule (i'd like to enter SOL as my club).
But i'd like to run the race earlier.
i'll remove the name, and reference, and maybe move some waypoints around,
would that be sufficient?.

mmartin - we wouldn't need to move the waypoints.. no-one can copyright destinations .. but we do need a new name and we can certainly race it sooner than the real thing! In this case we do not need to buddy with the organising association!!!

But... if it happens to come up in conversation then it would be fabulous to add a European club to our buddy list!!

:-)

Pls consider to run it in a seacart.

mmartin - I am happy to say that your race is now set up in SOL and as a result of creating it we now have an Adriatic weathersystem in place!!

To look at your race, just log in as the sol boat:

Username: sol
Password: sol

and then use the following url:

http://www.sailonline.org/windy/run/366

let me know what you think??!!

:-D
let me know what you think??!!
looks great, i'd shure like to race it that way...
the rounding of susak can be done in both directions, but that does no harm i think.
Also the distance is somewhat around 190 nm, which is also fine with me, and distinguishes the race from the RL race ;-)
Thanks
Ups, of course that was my post,
never forget to logout after testing the sol boat.
Thanks for checking out your race. It is now archived until we want to race it!

Do you have any preference as to when you would like to have your race run? Have a look at the draft April calendar in the Race Calendar Forum and let me know what date/day and start-time you would like.
i'd like to race it asap for example Friday 1st of April hehe :-D
any weekend starting friday and ending Sunday would be great.

thx for setting that up, i very much appreciate your work here..

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.
