I like to see a legends board. This could include several categories, like a list of the race winners and series winners; most miles sailed; who has been ranked #1; most races finished. Similar idea to the badges but with more detail.

Longest % of time aground.

Fastest time excluding time aground.

There were seveal more suggestions made in the past including syenum'd analysis.

I to, have thought along these lines...
Like a 'SOL Trophy Room' or 'Hall of Fame'

Soon more things like this should be possible (fingers-crossed, no promises)

Fastest time for what?

What is "syenum'd anaylsis"?

There was long ago and far away such a list.
By a soler called Wiz. It would be nice if anyone knows how to get in touch or even catch a glimpse of his code.

(now shows: page not found)

Sorry my fingers got fuddled!!

One analysis I looked at was his "national" raking. I don't know the real story about 3 or 4 years ago, however it seemed that the SoL gods did not want to link to his analysis.

I know we swapped emails and I suggested some fun prizes as well, At that time all the kiwi boats were racing for a real bottle of Mt Gay and we even had the Royal Akarana Yacht Club's Around White Island Race present a bottle of rum at their official prizegiving.

Aaron: Fastest time for sailing the course so I could see that if I had NOT gone aground, I could of been in 47th place instead of my 254th position.

If only I could be more dedicated!! LOL!!

It would be an encouragement to do a bit better.

CONCENTRATE
CONCENTRATE
CONCENTRATE

are the 3 important requirements when racing IMHO.

OK - just it seemed we were talking about a 'Legends Page' - 'Hall of Fame' whatever - so I didn't think you were referring to including individual races there...

But, time ashore is not recorded...

Why don't people just try harder not to hit the hard stuff?
All it really takes is very little sleep for the duration of the race and possible divorce proceedings... Totally worth it ;-)
(Easy for me to say, I'm a Bachelor)

But seriously - many suggestions require changes to the underlying data model kept on the SOL server. That is one of the hardest things to do just at the moment. So we need to try to work within the data SOL currently does collect (for the time being)

I would still like to see a LOG of my sailing filled in for every hour + times of steering changes + when aground, when refloated.


Ideally being able to download it so that when I do wake up or get back to my PC, then if desired I could download by clicking on a "button".

Perhaps a choice of TXT, CSV
and M$ Excel for formats.

Contents. All this data is currently shown on screen:

Lat, Long, Position in fleet, DTG

plus data as shown on screen:

Speed, Course, TWA, TWD, TWS, VMG, PERF, UTC, Comments (aground, Abeam Cape Horn etc if appropriate)

Ideally UTC in first column in format:
yyyy-mmm-dd hh:mm

Africa by Sea 2025 - Suez to Port Said


When Napoleon (briefly) occupied Egypt at the turn to the 19th C, he ordered his expedition’s Directeur des Ponts et Chaussées, Jacques-Marie Le Père, to evaluate the ancient, derelict, infilled course of a Ptolemaic canal connecting the Red Sea to the Nile via the Great Bitter Lake, versus a new canal to the Mediterranean directly. Neither were considered feasible – locks to climb a pauvre-surveyed 10m sea-level difference, or continuous dredging of the Nile, would both be equally financially prohibitive. Fifty years passed before the unlikeliness of Le Père’s survey finding was challenged and a French Compagnie Universelle du Canal Maritime de Suez obtained a 99-year concession from the Khedive of Egypt, Said Pasha, to construct and operate a canal from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, much against the will of the Ottoman Sultan, Abdulmecid I (the Pasha’s nominal overlord), and the wishes of the (Irish) British prime minister, Lord Palmerston. The year was 1859, the very number of this race (planning, dear boy, planning!), which, despite the canal’s double-super-tanker gauge and lack of locks, is strictly prohibited to sailors IRL. But not SOLers! 85nm in Fareast 28Rs to complete your circumnavigation of Africa!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
