RainbowChaser 0 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 On Saturday, 1 June 2013 at midday (midnight on 31 May UTC) a small group of yachts will set sail from Auckland's Westhaven, for a point some 1155nm distant... the resort of Musket Cove, Fiji. This will be a tricky S to N race across one of the toughest areas of the Pacific and will test all who race. Sailonline is delighted to have been invited by the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron to provide a virtual version of this classic race and will be bringing the real fleet onto the race screen, courtesy of Yellowbrick Tracking. The bulk of the real fleet will be monohulls, so SOL will be sailing her Beneteau 477, but it is expected that Team Vodafone Sailing will be out to beat her own multihull record set in 2011. Current Records: Monohull: Camper (Chris Nicholson) 103h 38m 16s in 2011 Multihull: Team Vodafone Sailing (Simon Hull) 103h 20 m 57s Entrants Atom Ant http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Atom_Ant_Boat_Information.pdf Equilibrium http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Equilibrium_Boat_Information.pdf Outrageous Fortune http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Outrageous_Fortune_Boat_Information.pdf Squealer http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Squealer_Boat_Information.pdf V5 http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/V5_Boat_Information.pdf Venture http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Venture_Boat_Information.pdf Vision http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Vision_Boat_Information.pdf Vodafone http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Vodafone_Boat_Information.pdf Wild Card http://www.sailonline.org/static/var/sphene/sphwiki/attachment/2013/05/28/Wild_Card_Boat_Information.pdf To Race in the Sailonline Virtual race just go to http://www.sailonline.org, register a username (boatname) if you have not done so already and then join the race in its practice/pre-racing phase!
