*Hawaiian ZigZag
*Vineyard
*Maui-Mazatlan
*Iberian Tour
*Auckland Regional
*Carib Rum Run
*Ouzo Rally
*Atlant'Iles Challenge
*Key Lime Pie
* Round Fastnet(or that little island off the SW corner of Ireland) Rock Challenge
*Poor Man's Race (2 legs)
*Bosphore-Bretagne (3legs)
*SYCC series
*Caribbean Sprint
*Sophies Juniper Malt Challlenge

---------------------------
Nice ideas captjack - the Auckland Regional is being run this year as the B&G Simrad Series, the Vineyard is already in the calendar, and we will be Sailing Around Turkey which is not quite Bosphore-Bretagne but at least part of it!! We've also spent quite a bit of time round Europe and the British Isles recently so its time to give other areas an airing as well!!

I just finished reading the book: Endurance, by Alfred Lansing. Fascinating!

A race, following its route from South Georgia - Antarctica - Elephant Island - South Georgia is a possibility, but some 3700 NM!!

Here you can see it on GE - would you like me to work on it?

Hi Hawk - if you look here you will see that someone has already thought of that!! Maybe you can bring that thread by to life by reposting your comment there?

There are a lot of races that have yet to be run in SOL (and if you look at captjack's selection above of his favourites, there are a lot of pre-run ones that we like to run again!) so it wouldn't be something we could necessarily do immediately.

:-)

Amazing done by 76T !! I think we have almost the samt thoughts here :-)

I just made this suggestion, because you wrote, that the SEP-calendar was almos empty. didnt consider re-runs, but for me it is OK, Im still new here.

I am happy to announce the restoration of 5 September - it had decided to take a day off until it was reminded that its presence in the race calendar is essential :-D

RC, It would be interesting to see a list of the races we have on the list that are new and waiting?. There are at LEAST 2-3 more from Jepsom, one on the coast of Maine and a several others I can't think of. With the Atlantic hotting up, I may resurrect the "Storm Series" idea as well.

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
