JT1703 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I know What chance has he of finding Rio from from the west coast of France if he can't find the button to press for the right race ?!?!? Get yourself registered for the right race Martin before 9am ( The Clipper 09-10 Round the World Yacht Race ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin W Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 winds aren't too good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich5259 Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 forgot the start, but turned south and made up 14,000 places in 5 minutes You may regret that later. me and most of the rest of the fleet it seems. Perhaps your alternative strategy will work out but i didn't like the forecast winds for the next 36 hours if i went due west Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT1703 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I am sticking with my plan to head south .... very suspicious of Martin heading WNW though What does he know that we don't ?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT1703 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 A very good reason for that, I cant log on. and there was me thinking that you knew something we didn't ! I misjudged the strong winds during the night and nearly got beached on the north coast of Spain Bobbing west at 2 knots now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT1703 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I've just registered but have no idea what to do!! Wouldn't worry about it ... I registered 3 days ago and still don't have a clue what I'm doing ( hence my current position of 35000ish !! ) Point your boat down wind and hope for the best !
