Kaihe Atamai 2 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 The Route 66 race will include a singlehanded division this year - it's a double-points race in the Hauraki Singlehanded Series - and it would be good to have a large fleet to show the clubs that singlehanded racing is something to support and grow, so, who's in? http://richmondyc.org.nz/racing/info/ro ... stal-race/ Details: March 8th, 9AM start Westhaven, Auckland to Marsden Point, Whangarei 66nm Cat4+ (see NOR) cost: $50 (includes a bottle of Appleton's rum for finishers!)

Tiller 2 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 i will try to be there and trail boat home to do bucks round rangi 2 handed. Link to post Share on other sites
S+S24 0 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Any boats from Whangarei doing this race? What about the hundreds of "classics" parked around Auckland? Such as the S&S 24/Falcon, Raven 26, Reactor, Nova 28, H28, Harmonic, Spencer Stileto/Adrian and a lot more. These boats may not be able to finish the race within 10 hours, but should provide within sight racing over 66 miles. Cat 4+ should be easy to get by begging and illicit borrowing! I am still trying hard to get myself organised to do it, and am wondering if there is any interest out there amongst the more 'aged' boats that would be comparable to my sort of top speed!

Kaihe Atamai 2 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 I'm not but will do the Weiti SH on the Sunday. You coming back for that? Not clear at this point, however, most likely not. Next year we can hopefully avoid these overlaps... Link to post Share on other sites
Norwegian Blue 10 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Anyone have a small Life raft I can stow below or a really tiny dinghy I can borrow? Otherwise I am a non-starter. My dinghy is just way too big to carry on deck inflated (or rather just bugger all deck space and I can't hang it on the transom either ) Usual caveats apply, i.e. if I deploy the life raft, it's mine and you get a new one. I have a few surplus bottles of rum. Link to post Share on other sites

Changed 10 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 If everyone turns up this will be the biggest SH fleet ever in Auckland (I think). Link to post Share on other sites
Kaihe Atamai 2 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Stories to follow soon I hope, just to mention that in challenging conditions all but one singlehander finished the race and singlehanders took the overall win and 3rd place prizes on handicap.... Fantastic! Link to post Share on other sites
