Here is a link to free NZ RNC charts:

NZ RNC zip

Apparently, New Zealand has decided to remove encryption from their official RNC charts. This link gives you a 'sampler' of charts in the new format. The implication is that ALL NZ charts will soon be available in the new, unencrypted, format.

The good news is that one of the charts in the sampler -- Approaches to Auckland -- covers the race #1 and race #2 areas of the Simrad Series.
So...
If you like to follow SOL races in charting software, this is your link!
And...
I suggest that 'kudos' are in order for the folks in NZ who are making accurate charting data more readily available.
Aye, charts have been available here for a while.
For those with an Android device,
PredictWind have a tracker available for you to track the real boats in this race.

Sailonline is delighted to be returning to Auckland, New Zealand, as the virtual partner of SSANZ for the annual three-race Simrad series - the biggest short-handed race and the second biggest keelboat race in New Zealand.

Raced over 50nm (13 July), 60nm (10 August)and 100nm (7 September) the three races will all start from Auckland, on New Zealand's North Island, and race around the Hauraki Gulf. This year SOL will again be sailing Young 11(mod) boats which should keep us competitive with the bulk of the fleet.

SOLer NZL Yachtyakka will be sailing on Promise, a Stewart 34. If any other SOLers are taking part - do let us know!

Chesapeake and Potomac TIMED Race 2026

Welcome to the Chesapeake Bay, the sailing capital of the United States.

Tobruk to Iskenderun 2026

Welcome to the fourth of our nine races across the length and breadth of the Magical Mediterranean Sea, and the second that is not in partnership with a real-life event, this time for good reason, which we won’t get into here. From Tobruk to Iskenderun it’s 670nm in length, with the added complication that the island of Cyprus will be in your way. Hoping, possibly forlornly, for plenty of downwind sailing, we’ll take the Lagoon 55 for the voyage!

Tasmania to Kamchatka 2026

Welcome to yet another all-new route. Tasmania to Kamchatka, part of our Ocean Championship and also the third leg of the ROW (Round the Old World) series. Be aware of the obstacles on the way, likely to split the fleet. It's like X:mas to X:mas, crossing the same waters, navigating the same archipelagos. This second race of OCQ2 2026 will be sailed in our revised 'version 2' Imoca 60 Foil. Race #2031
