Tazzy Devil 18 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Can’t find the wait list, missed out due to work stuff and am trying to get on it. Anyone have a link: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raz88 97 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 The list is on this page https://www.ssanz.co.nz/round-north-island-2020/ Can't see a link to get on it but a few of the ssanz committee hover here, I'm sure clipper or Jon will be able to help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

On the positive this is one of the few races which has caught the imagine of a lot of people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

B00B00 317 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Only got to wait until 60% of the fleet has finished before the next start can be scheduled. Probably no bigger gap than any other RNI with the likes of ran tan not there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still a big difference between anarchy, Mr kite, blink etc and an e7.9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jon 391 Posted April 5, 2019 Author Share Posted April 5, 2019 So what happens if a boat doesn't make the next start? Hasn’t happened in my memory as the restart wont be at night so in reality it’s longer than stated, but it could happen if we have a boat that’s sailing exceptionally slowly. In that case they will have to restart themselves at exactly the minimum stopover time after they finish. If anyone else missed out let me know as the website handled the 30 entries in 45min (28 in 15min) no problems however when we switched to registering for the wait list a couple of people couldn’t get through, they contacted us and we added them manually in that order. We are working on securing more options for berthage in both Wellington and Napier and we hope to be able to accommodate everyone, but no promises at this point.

Battleship 100 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Looking similar to 2011 with 40 entries. Hope the weather is better. Is it to early to say that? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philstar 61 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Sniper has joined the waitlist. Wouldn't it be nice to have four E1050's in the race Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kick Ass 49 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Sniper has joined the waitlist. Wouldn't it be nice to have four E1050's in the race Could almost have our own division! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Keep thinking like that Wil, if only half get around it will definitely help with berthage. I have just been turned down by the commercial port in Napier. So now I’m chasing the City Council to get guaranteed access to the Ahuriri Inlet wall, if the weather is good it won’t be a problem as the fishing fleet will be out, but if not ? Herdy is working on options in Welly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Battleship 100 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I know a fisherman in Napier maybe I could ask? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 391 Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share Posted April 22, 2019 The wall is first in best moored, it’s owned by the city council and is free to use. The thing is if the weather is good and the fishing fleet is out then we have no problem, however this not even I can predict. If we can make an arrangement with the city council to reserve a section then all we will need to do is make each yacht carry a fender board, or we will make some up and have them ready. The wheels of bureaucracy don’t turn fast however Similar talks are happening in Wellington We are still hoping to get everyone that’s serious and ready to go a start, however the wait list is still growing, so we need anyone that’s got a spot and have something come up that may exclude them to keep us in the loop so we can give others the opportunity to make the start line.

Battleship 100 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Got our entry done, 34 boats on the entry list now. Wow! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 391 Posted July 14, 2019 Author Share Posted July 14, 2019 We reopened entries to the wait list as Herdy has managed to get access to Queens Wharf in Wellington, Napier is still a work in progress but they will manage I’m sure. 36 entries now two more coming, that’s it (or actually over it) If any drop out we may or may not accept a replacement depending on developing berthage arrangements, we have actually over sold this race so hoping everyone makes it but it will actually help if some don’t. (Did I say that out loud ?) This will be the biggest fleet ever (36 entries in 2011) Only 222 days to go Can’t wait 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 358 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 At 37 now, hopefully one more coming. The last entry I saw is our resident bondage expert! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
