NOR for Maui Practice: 01/08 @ 1800 utc

Description: Fast* paced Slalom or 'Figure 8', using a mid course 'Gate'

Start Line: is between M5 and M1 - SW is OCS
This also comprises the 'Gate'.
Course:
M5-M1 Start Line
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Pass, heading NE, between Gate
M2 - Round to Starboard
M5-M1 Pass, heading SW, between Gate
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Finish Line

(Estimated) Time En-route (ETE): 2 hours
Course Length: 15 nm
Start/Finish Line & Gate:
- Length (Width) = 0.4 nm
- Bearing to Leeward (Port) Pin = 147.5
Course Bearings:
Downwind = 240
Upwind = 60

Notes:
  • OCS = On Course Side (ie wrong side at the start)
  • Line bearing is from M5 to M1
  • * Well... fast for 12 kn TWS!
  • Course bearings may be tweaked prior to the start to reflect minor changes in forecast winds
  • Gate just means: pass through the start/finish line each leg...

This course should reward pre-start attention & thought... (plan out your strategy before 1800!) ;-)

Enjoy!

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.
