	Aaron, You and your passion are missed. Winning legs at A3 series was quite emotional for me. You great legacy to SOL will last.

	It has been too long since I posted a verse. What better time than now... Ode to Aaron All around AUS we have raced ALL 4 Aaron the rest of us chased And the thoughts of our friend Shall not come to an end His legacy firmly in place It was Tyger's rare gift we employed To recall AGage and all he enjoyed The competitive edge, His life never a "hedge" But full-on and with hearty "Ahoy!" The A3 is now at the dock We think back, reflect and take stock Of what it has meant To complete this event... We wish we could tun back the clock. Our crewmate keeps watch on our fleet As we BBQ, chat and compete His memory stays With us on through our days On our reaches, our runs and our beats. See you over the horizon, mate. We miss you. SP

	Each of us plays the hand we are dealt in life. We turn each card over as we live. It is never how long we play, but how well----and immortality comes when they remember our name. We will remember Agage in SOL for a long time. If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

	Thank you for this great race and all you have done to develop SOL. Vale Aaron.

	Just miss you every day, Aaron. Sailonline has finally sailed round Australia and the individual legs of the A3 race will undoubtedly be dusted off and raced again and again in the future. On Friday, 28 June at 2000utc we will start our last and most Aaron-like race - a quick zoom round the waters offshore his home-yacht club. We aren't racing Sharpies but our Soto 30 should prove sporting enough!

	I have run this last AG race late just to make it so - AGage was and is still is the best - we chatted and virtually hugged on SOL and I still think about him every day... LONG LIVE AGAGE!!!!! Cheers! Ricos0 Rico

	Aaron had the patience to answer my emails with my questions. Few things surprises me, but when I heard the news I was in disbelief. I am still not want to believe. Maybe he is in meditation somewhere in the Australia outback. Man. if you are reading this; I miss you. Antonio

Halifax to Hooper Bay 2024

And now it’s Autumn in the Arctic, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. Having receded all summer, ice is starting to return to the numerous straits and bays of Canada’s North West Passage. High time then to set off on our last leg of the High Latitudes Series from Halifax in Nova Scotia to Alaska’s Hooper Bay. It’s 3850nm and we need to hurry, so we’ll take the Pelagic 77!
