I use AI generated images but certainly not for boats. Example - Prompt: sailing yacht with brightly coloured spinnaker Result:

So SSANZ Triple Series claims yet another drone???

Great to hear that Actionaire and Titus are racing against each other once again. They had many a great battle in Wellington, usually with Actionaire in front!
-
Would love to see some photos of the Actionaire resurrection project!

We have a large fire extinguisher stored in a cockpit locker for exactly that reason - that you may have to get through the companionway to get to an extinguisher but that's likely to be where the fire is.

Central Triangle - fully crewed and two handed back in 2022
splashprincess replied to splashprincess's topic in RaceTalk
Well with plenty of contingency planning - what if's and then what's , Plans Bs through to Ps we're now less than 2 weeks away from the start and have 8 boats that will be on the start line Friday March 4. Big ups to Wasabi for coming down to sail with us south of the Bombay's and they'll be joined by Satellite Spy from Waikawa racing fully crewed. Then we have 6 two-handed boats - 5 of which did the 2020 RNI and are coming back to race a bit closer to home. Check out the RPNYC Facebook page and event website for updates, tracking and live stream of the starts. -
First sea trials were back in September and it's been floating in Seaview Marina since then.

I couldn't find anywhere that they had confirmed the NZ venue, in the NOR it states it would be communicated no later than Dec 31 2021. We've hosted Class 40s here before so that would be great if it is Wellington.
-
Link? Which NZ city has been chosen?
-
Yep should be no problems to go up the mast, just preferably when it's not super windy. Ooopps it's Wellington in springtime ... so just pick your day!
