I dont know if I do this right - but one must try to learn :-)

Also recomandations for a boattype will be appreciated.

Hi Hawk - thanks for this kmz.. all looks perfect to me (opened in Google Earth no problem)!

As you want this to tie in with your school programme do you have a particular week/month in which you would like this raced? To get good winds I would imagine October would be fun?

This will make a good weekend race :-)

As for boat-type.. what boats are used locally? Any ideas?

October is fine with me.
I´ll check boattypes shortly, and will return here - both a date for the race AND boattype!

PS! Is it possible to navigate in the low waters NE of Waypoint 2 ? I think it will be a challeging route there, but I dont know how it will show in the SOL-klient.

TY RC - btw, I think it is better to put WP2 up the nothern tip of Island Aeroe - can you do that, or do you prefer a new GE-file?

Great Race! I suspect the route may have to alter to WP1 as the Alssund may not show in the SOL client. I tried a race with an even larger water feature, and it did not show up. Alternative might be WP1 on the north tip of Nordborg (leave to starboard).

I'm sure your students will have a GREAT time with this race. Well done!

Can one sail under / over Sundbrovej 54d57.54N 10d39.21E?

The GE photos show it is very close to sea level.

By contrast the Brovejen 54d56.51N 10d42.27E looks much higher off the water.

IRL is there much tide here. It would be an interesting tidal challange in shallow twisting waters vs the straight course in deeper water.
If it breaks, it's not strong enough!

Thanks SP !
Fortunally, I can see the course on the SOL-client in the TSR-race :-) It is actually possible to sail the Alssund.

Unfortually the SOL-client does not show the Store Bælt-bridge (WP3), so maybe that WP doesnt make sence!

Hi Paul

I cant fint the positions you mention, but it is possible to sail the route I have made, both on SOL and IRL. BUT not with a mast, 100 m high :-) I will find another boattype !

There is practically no tide in these waters but a lot of stream (not sure, if this is the word in English, sorry) at Strib Lighthouse (WP 5). This winter I saw a difference of sealevel because of the strong stream, at that point. An amazing sight, that I have only seen at "Saltstraumen" in North Norway (close to Bodö), but it was caused by the tide).

Lake Vättern PYOC 2026


Back in 2013, longstanding SOLer Musigny and his friend xthyra invited us for a three race tour of beautiful Lake Vättern in the heart of southern Sweden. After many years, we return there for a quick sprint from a start in front of the village of Brandstorp, either way around Visingso island in the middle of the lake, but PORT HAND ROUND a buoy off the Granna piers on the eastern shore and back, once again avoiding Visingso as best you can. At least 20nm in trusty Scandinavian 11m One Designs; good luck!
