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!!!

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
