    Il me siérait volontiers de continuer à me nommer "La buse" pour cette course pourtant fort éloignée de mes eaux de chasse favorites...mais pourtant familières à mes débuts prométeurs.

    So, please, call me "La buse" for this race....

    la buse, bien sur

    Hi RC,

    and thanks for everything..!!

    Now, I will try to find the time to try the race....
    The trace seems to be good, but not so easy according to winds direction.

    I don't know if it's normal, but my boat always appears with its usual name.....

    c'etait ma faute... desolée... c'est fait maintenant
    ________________
    It's nothing. Thanks for the change.
    I will know be able to sail as La Buse (Buzzard, in English, I thought) who was known for the quickness of his attacks....even if it was in the Indian Ocean.
    Beware forward....!!!!

    Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals
    Hi,

    I think I have a proposition for a totally virtual race.
    It could take place in the north of Quebec, on Manicouagan reservoir.
    Why here? For me, because it's a very particular place on our planet. It's the place where a huge meteor has fallen, perhaps the one which has caused the extinction of dinosaurs.
    Of course it's not really a famous sailing place, but why not?
    Perhaps it could take place during "l'été Indien", so at the end of septembre or in octobre. Later it could be a bit frozen....
    So, it's just a proposal and I will not be hurted if it's not considered as a good one.

    I added a file with the polars of the Platu 25 as I have thought that it could be a good one for this race...

    well, I think that, for this race, I would like to take the name of the french pirate "la_buse". Even if this race does not take place in the good ocean.....
    Thanks

Auckland to Noumea 2025


The ARCH competition is transitioning now from the Arabian Sea to the Pacific Ocean, featuring a 1000 nm route from Auckland to Nouméa. Organized by the Royal Akarana Yacht Club, the race last occurred in 2018 and was set to resume on May 25, 2024, after a lengthy hiatus. However, due to political unrest in New Caledonia, the event has been cancelled. Fortunately, those situations do not impact our virtual race, so prepare your Open 60 for another exciting adventure.

Tyger Memorial Race 2025

Dear Robert Neilson, gone too soon, but, a volunteer crew having brought his Tyger home in our first Ocean Race of 2025, here is a further opportunity to remember him and his great contribution to Sailonline, by blasting around an 80nm triangle on his home waters of Port St Philip Bay in spanking-new-to-SOL very-Robert very-macho, grind-greedy Cookson 50s. Tell tales of his derring-do in Chat or add something for posterity to his Tyger IN MEMORIAM Forum page. Sail on, SOLer.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Dondra to Toamasina


Above you see a stratospheric balloon, that if only we had gribs at that altitude would get blasted along quite rapidly and predictably. Alas we just have our SOL balloon that sails rather lower to the sea and that we have crossed the Atlantic in, west to east, last year for the first time in the southern hemisphere. So much fun was had by all, that this year we will attempt the Indian Ocean, but in four legs. Another great piece of fiction, the voyages of Sinbad By Balloon not magic carpet, although you may need a bit of magic to make any progress at times. Pack your wicker basket full for your first leg of at least 2300nm from Sri Lanka to Madagascar; it’s not a picnic hamper, you could be in the air for longer than you hoped!
