    brad ellis here - aka braddlepate for the Rum Run!

    addlepate is "an archaic term for a foolish, dull-witted, or confused person"

    Over the years some of my pals have called me braddle as the first syllables of my names are "Brad" and "El". Maybe they're on to something! haha

    Ahoy there, braddlepate! Yer name be as fine a blend o’ rum and wit as any we’ve seen on the high seas! Whether fool, rogue, or genius in disguise, ye’ll be sailin’ the Rum Run with style. May yer casks never run dry and yer compass never spin, ye merry seadog!

    "Bilge Brain Brellie" for my pirate ship, please!

    Arrrgh, "Bilge Brain Brellie" be a name that tells tales of a pirate with a peculiar mind, one who navigates the treacherous waters of the bilge with wit and cunning. A fine choice, me heartie!

    Downtime between races - it's a good thing, right?
    Board » General Discussion
    Finished the Christmas Island Race already (did really well by brellis boat standards) and some empty SOL days before the next race begins.

    A few years ago I determined to start and finish ~every~ race, so for a while now it seems like I've ~always~ had a boat in the water on some race or another, every day of the year, until the past couple of days. Guess that's a mark of improvement!

    Several years ago, I was catching up to the pack in some race. I came across Bimmer's boat, bbq'd. He started moving again and I noticed him saying in the chat "how about a match race to the next marker?" or something like that. He had spotted me a lead, beat me to the marker pretty easily anyway - but he did so with very cheerful, joyous and helpful hints in his chat comments. In more recent years, I've participated in many Practice Races with him, always a happy experience. Don't even feel like I miss him yet - his presence is emanating all over the Memorial Race, as if he's still here with us! RIP Finn aka Bimmer

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

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.
