Your e-mail RC was a challenge :-)

Here it must exist some local Solers who can tell us about where and what we should visit on the stretch - much better than I can since there are so many years since I sailed in this area.

But I start with my old route between Jura and Islay - west of Skerryvore lighthouse - inside Lunga/Mull, north and out to Outer Hebredes where we again can meet the armada.

There are so many places between Greenock and Lerwick that I have problems to choose which we can visit while on the move. The Armada will only sail without any competition.
How to set up the short leg as a sort of friendly practical race for 21 to 24 July. Could this be a solution for SOL ...

Jawik - I think you misread my email.. what is needed is for you/someone to look at the Official Ports of Call in the STI website and decide which of them the SOL fleet should use as waypoints in passing.

That's all.

I know you are busy, so if you don't have time to do this then just let me know and I will do it (I was going to anyway, but thought you might like to help in this small way as it was you who first suggested SOL looks at these races).

:-D

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
