Clive 13 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Do we need to carry a dinghy for this race? Sailing Instructions, section 4 covers it in the NOR only there is no section 4 of the SI's --- if that is the link to the SI's. Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 375 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Voom will be there. There will be quite a few of the soloiq guys that can't make prizegiving though, as ANZAC 250 on the following Thursday/Friday? Link to post Share on other sites

Changed 10 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Check the DYC sailing instructions for the finishing times for Solo IQ competitors. You need to be back at Richmond for you free dinner! Out of towners can tie up in Westhaven. Link to post Share on other sites
RWC 2 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thanks GregW. Not sure why the original link failed. Dinghies not required. Changed has referred to time limits above. SI's state that there is no time limit for the race, however keep an eye out for an amendment for the SoloIQ boats over the next day or so. WindGuru seems to show a bit more than PredictWind. Fingers crossed. Link to post Share on other sites
raz88 97 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Call me computer illiterate but I can't find the amendment on the dyc site. Can anyone point me in the direction, or advise details of the change? Link to post Share on other sites
raz88 97 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 That's computer illiterate to you Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 375 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Forecasts have changed, looks like time limits wont be an issue. (And I'm surprised KM could spell illiterate) Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 375 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 What time is the soloiq dinner planned for? Link to post Share on other sites
RWC 2 Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 OK, confirmation of amendment for time limits. Changed had some inside knowledge I suspect and was a bit ahead of us. However, amendment is now issued and will be posted on the DYC site soon. Also with the SoloIQ team. Attention is drawn to NOR clause: 6.1 There will be no time limit. This clause remains valid for boats participating in the DYC Single Handed Race. For boats competing in the SoloIQ Series Race 9 and not looking for a result in the DYC Single Handed Race, clause 6.1 is amended to read: 6.1 A time limit of 1700 Saturday 16th applies. If one boat finishes within the time limit, then the time limit for all divisions will be extended by 30 minutes. Outside of the amendment, it is worth noting a few other things: There is only one start at 0900 covering both divisions. DYC runs a standing 'round the end' rule for the start [DYC general SI 12.3a] If you're over and recalled, you need to go round the outside of the buoy to restart. Enjoy.

RWC 2 Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Thanks to all the visitors, especially the SoloIQ boats. 27 starters across the two divisions and a real mix. A bit of a Dr Seuss day really - One hull two hull, old hull new hull. Can't be too many times you get a gaffer racing off the same start as a clutch of 8.5 cats. Link to post Share on other sites
RWC 2 Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 A real day for the cats though, quite a bit of flat water slightly cracked I suspect. Gave the tower crew a heck of a surprise getting home in 2.5 hours. Link to post Share on other sites
RWC 2 Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Overall results for the two DYC divisions which includes the SoloIQ boats. Hope to see you all again next season. Link to post Share on other sites
