CONGRATULAZIONI WINSTON_4!!! HERZLICHEN GLÜCKWUNSCH rumskib!! CONGRATULAZIONI aner59!
Race Leaderboard

Another good race for the majority of SOLers with fierce competition for the top spots. Watching two of SOL's "masters of sailing", WINSTON_4 and rumskib, battle it out for #1 was really eye-opening - just how do they spot the smallest of advantages and make best use of them? It is truly a combination of skill, judgment and marshalling all resources at their disposal - in the end, a mere 7 seconds separated them. Congratulations, too, to Aner59, who took the third place on our podium just a couple of minutes later.

All did not go as smoothly for some SOLers who found their boats jumping over the North Island of New Zealand after they had sailed into the rising sun and reached the easternmost boundary of the racing zone. In the past crossing the international dateline has caused problems in Sailonline, as it does with most routing software, but these were resolved. Dateline-triggered jumping has never occurred before and, naturally, we will endeavour to ensure it cannot happen again. However, to commemorate this historic event Sailonline has prepared Certificates for each boat affected and you should already have an email from coord@sailonline.org (if not, please get in contact).

For those of us who didn't jump but who didn't get the results we had hoped for, remember you can always compare your historical track with that of another boat at hmm's SOL Race Data Centre.

ATTENTION Top 10 Finishers!!In addition to the trophies on offer for winning the 2014 Championships this year, there are also awards for the best 10 finishers of each championship race!!

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.
