Commentary

Leg 2 of the ESRW aka RWWW aka NAAH then, from Sao Vicente on the Cape Verdes to Colon at the mouth of the Panama Canal, although barely shorter at c 3300nm than Leg 1's c 3500nm from Haifa to Sao Vicente, took the first RP65s home a mere 11 days versus the best 17 day passages set for Leg 1. Nothing like fair winds and a fast boat, and thus whilst departing 4 days after a separate SOL fleet of Xp55s had left the Canaries for the Caribbean, our RP65s managed to overtake our Xp55s before reaching the Windward Isles. 10 feet and 5 tonne makes a big difference!

Undoubtedly, having two virtual identities in roughly the same place on two charts enjoying roughly the same weather (not quite – the res for ESRW2 was a rougher 1.5 x 1.5 degrees than the 1 x 1 for the race from Lanzarote) at the same time led to a bit of DC-setting confusion for some, but not the podium of course, led home by WRmirekd, who is rather in the form of his life, as indeed is aner59 who added his P3 here to the P3 he recorded in the Lanzarote Grenada race the day before. Mind you, GREATSKUA also is currently going muy bien, with his P2 adding nicely to his recent victory racing round Indochina. What a podium!

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
