Posted by JB Posts 305 Registered at 2013-03-07 08:54:34	2014-05-08 16:54:39 - New TR and new SOL boat.
	Viva SOLers. With my friend Jan/bonknhoot we are preparing a new Timed Race to be sailed with a new SOL boat. Yes, a new boat. The new boat Polar Data is in the “crunch machine”, and, for the moment, all I can say it’s a boat that all SOLers dream about. Not only the race field but, especially the boat - if the SOL committee will be kind to accept her - will bring new and hot adrenaline for everybody. We’ll be back as soon as the boat is on the "lifting crane". Be well. Sail Fair. Attachments New_SOL_boat.JPG (164.1 KB)

	Why is it "lopsided?" None so blind

	A2R, I think the diagram shows twa=[0,180] in a [0,360] graph.

	Good morning all. Yes, Kroppy is correct. The Wind data is being worked on the TWA range (0; 180) degrees and the resulting graph has the TWA = 180º on the position that’s normally used by the 360º. With that graph disposition you have more space to distribute the curves and it’s also easier to inspect the odd points. Sail Fair.

	Dear JB, Is this based on a real life boat, or a boat that exists only on paper? I am just curious. Thanks, Antonio

	Viva António. Este barco é bem real e, em algum momento, também passou pelo papel de alguém. Esta semana, o novo barco vai ser divulgado. Abraço de João Viva Antonio. This boat is very real and, at some point, also passed by the paper of someone. This week, the new boat will be disclosed. Hug from João Sail Fair.

	Viva all SOLers. As promised we propose, not one, but two new races to be sailed with a new SOL boat. First: the boat. Sail Fair. Attachments Lisboa_TR_and_the_new_SOL_boat.pdf (623.1 KB)

	Wonderful! I was hoping there would be an AC72 polar available on sol, and I know other did too I have two notes (for now ): - The number you give contain negative speeds for tws=40kts, is that intentional? - As of now, it's not possible to have different performance rules for different boats. Click here for details (especially the last couple of pages of that thread). As a result of this, the AC72 will be bound to use the same performance model as every other boat. This means gigantic performance losses due to the gigantic speeds of the "boat" (never really thought the AC72 could be called a boat ) I (personally) hope that there will we a performance model in which one of two boat-specific parameters can be set for every boat. Here is a picture of the polar: --- Last Edited by kroppyer at 2014-05-19 19:33:04 --- Attachments AC72-polar_small.png (27.3 KB) AC72-polar.png (124.1 KB)

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024

Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

St Nazaire Chasse TIMED Race 2024

Welcome to a "chasse" (hunt) from St. Nazaire to La Baule on the west coast of France! This race was designed by SOLer FR_flouflou in 2010. The KER 40 was introduced to SOL in 2016 by SOLer psail, and the Sol-KER was a welcome addition to SOL’s fleet of 40- footers, as it was to the IRL Ker fleet of eponymous - like KERonimo, KukuKERchu and Ice BreaKER. This is a TIMEDrace, so you may RE-REGISTER HERE to try again, after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to show your skill and decision making after the race opens.
