2011-04-07 19:45:40 - St. Malo Long Practice race
This is a long shot, but would any body consider a "Practice racers special"?

We would agree on a start time and race together.
What say you all?

Hiya

I was suggesting this in the Santa Monica chat earlier on.... I was thinking maybe we could start tomorrow at 1800utc. I understand that the first serious "best run" is probably not until 12th April by which time the practice race group would have finished.

I think it would be fun!

Shall we say tomorrow (Saturday) @1800utc then??!!

:-D

18:00z it is.:)

Asume start precedure is to join at 18:00 and set course as soon as possible.

I think ppl should check their computer clocks against UTC prior to joining.
http://www.k3dn.org/java/java%20clock/clock.htm is one place.

You can register in the St Malo at any time.. just don't set any commands and sit at the start point!

Once the race is open, I will put a comment in chat and in SailTalk chat and we can see who will join us!

If its just us then.. a matchrace it shall be!!!
