We already have an ocean race pre-Christmas so we need a date in Jan/Feb (or end Dec).. there's got to be one!

I think long ocean races are good in Dec/Jan - folks are on Christma/New Year / ski/other vacations so a long race keeps folks in touch :-)

Would this be longer than any previous races here?
I'd be up for the slog!

Here is the first leg of the mutineers, which was from Tonga to French Polynesia. I've suggested using Steinlager II as a modern boat a similar length to the HMS Bounty.

Given the recent loss of the vessel and some crew, would suggest making this a memorial race, something like the A3. Perhaps, after the appropriate interval, even contact the Tall Ship Bounty organization(www.tallshipbounty.org) and ask if a memorial race would be of interest to bring together the organization as a way of remembering the vessel and crew? Would cite our ongoing relationship with other Tall Ship organizations. Their website has been suspended at the moment but there may be others ways of contacting them in the future.

Suggest getting a polar for the Bounty herself instead of a modern platform.

Just a thought.

Good idea SP. Might be worth adding more legs to include the passage from the UK out to the Pacific.

I feel such action would be ill advised, seeing as they have taken down their website and we have no connection to any of the individuals involved. Just saying keep the original historical perspective.

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!
