  • Re: Lake Champlain Sprint
    Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals
    The only issue with said course is the missing of SLI's. Big deal on this little lake, but noticable lack on the south from Plattsburgh Bay to Four Brothers. Need to put Crab Island and Valcour Island on the course. Both are historic obstacles that would add a bit of a tack or jibe on that leg. Thanks for choosing this little venue for a "sprint", although a 40nm course on Lake Champlain is not really a "sprint". Typical race on this weekend in IRL is a 73.8 miler from bottom of Shelbourne Bay to La Roche Reef (N) to Diamond Island (S), finish at bottom of Shelbourne Bay. Lake Champlain Yacht Club runs the "Commodore Macdonough" on this weekend.

    Please add SOTP to my registration. Thank you Bimmer for the link; I too hoping someone had that source code as executable, as it once was....
    fair winds,

    I only know SOTP, which did not pay attention to this polar. I miss AGage's 'polar explorer' program, as cannot read the Rustler 36 vmg vmc lines. If not too late, I accept the terms as well.

  • Basic Right of Way Rules
    Board » Technical Support
    How about writing code to identify basic Port v Starboard right of way. Then port leeward v port windward, etc. Say 20 minutes after the start these rules apply. If a boat hits another boat and they don't have the ROW then a performance hit equal to the 720 degree penalty turn is applied. This would add a realty dimension and improve everyone's knowledge of basic sailing right of way. Also make mark roundings much more interesting...

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!

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.
