Anyone with a Carrier who's headed to Rackham's Peak want to graciously pick up a CMDR in HIP 50943?

So I fired up the game for the first time in weeks (if not months), tuned in to Galnet and promptly heard about Rackham's, which could be reached "with ships with long jump ranges." Surely, I thought, my Asp X that took me to Sadge A* and Colonia qualified. NUUUOOPE. Therefore I'm stranded in HIP 50943, about a third of the way from the bubble to Rackham's. I'm actually proud of how far I got, using my available FSD syntheses and scouring the galaxy map to find stars that were both within range and roughly on course to Rackham's.

If you can assist, please reply to this message. Would hate to see my accumulated exploration data go to waste, especially as cashing it in might get me to Elite. o7
 
Hi Syd, did you already try to ask the Fuel Rats? I think I remember that they also have some fleet carriers and might be able to help.

I stumbled across your post while I was searching if anybody else went to Rackham’s Peak for a nice Sylvester party. I’m sorry that you did not make it but without a carrier… no way. Currently my carrier is parked in HIP 58832 because I took few fellows up here to celebrate the party. We will leave again on 02.01.3307 at the earliest. But I cannot tell you for sure because we also brought a lot of beer, wine and liquor for the party and what doesn't go away at the party then has to be cleaned up. So we will only leave when we have cleared the ship again. When traveling to HIP 58832 I recognized quite some traffic on the route. I think your chances are good to find a ride. I’ll have a look at this thread when we are coming back – just in case you are still in HIP 50943. But as I said, I cannot tell you when this will be.
 
Did you manage (i.e. by the help of the Fuel Rats) to go back to the Bubble?
Then you can use the carrier of Down to Earth Astronomy.
His carrier is leaving for Rackham's tomorrow and everybody can join:

Hi- Thanks to all who replied and I'm sorry that I wasn't able to check my own post again later yesterday. To be clear, I don't think fuel rats would be able to help me, as my last jump, I think, was made using FSD synthesis (of which I have no more), and I don't think I could actually make it back to the bubble with my current, normal jump range (about 55 LY).
 
2KLy from Sol?

I can be there at, say, 6pm (game-time) tonight if you don't get a better offer. 🤷‍♂️
Hi- Thank you! I'm sorry, I just saw this. I'm in EST which is 5 hours behind game-time I think. So I would have missed. I could log in whenever if your generous offer still stands? Please let me know and thank you again just for replying.

I'm going to Rackam's this Saturday. I'm in GMT time zone. What is your Cmdr name? Add me in game please, I'm Cmdr Mathias Shallowgrave. I can plan my carrier jumps so that it goes through your stranded system.

It should be around early evening on Saturday for you when I get there, so hopefully you'll be in game to dock :)

Dear CMDR Shalowgrave,

Thank you x 1M!!!! That's perfect! I'll log in tonight and add you, and then be online all day tomorrow for your arrival.

I'll have to find a way to repay this debt to you!

Sincerely,

CMDR Syd Tenebrous
 
Hi Syd, our Carrier will leave HIP 58832 today. But as far is I see you already got a ride back to the bubble with a well known and experienced pilot.

Fly safe (next time ;) ) o7
