2015-03-01 15:03:31 - San Sebastian-La Rochelle
The Calendar & Race description states that this race is 323nm however the the course as it stands now is much shorter, only 171nm.

Curious considering we have to wait 5 days & then start 2 races only 3 hours apart, n'est pas ?

Curiouser and curiouser. The polar dataset displayed on brainaid goes no further than 20kn TWS, yet the graphic below it goes all the way to 35kn, whilst the downloadable 'detailed data as csv' again cuts off at 20kn (well 11 m/s). Variation up to 35kn as per the graphic would be nicer. Which is it going to be?
Also the SOL announcement speaks of a Delphia 47, but BrainAid heads the graphic Delphia 57. Given that max BS is around 9kn, I think that that in any event is wrong. It is a 47 footer, n'est-ce-pas encore?

A2, Thank you. The description is updated to 171nm now.

Jan, the Delphia 47 polar indeed contains a typo, it says "Delphia 57". This is only the case in this file (everywhere else the polar is named correctly): http://sailonline.org/site_media/vpp/Delphia_47.txt
Brainaid shows this file (among other data), so the incorrect name shows.
I've asked for the typo to be corrected. *EDIT: it is now corrected*

I don't see a graphic (on sol or on brainaid) that has detail above 11m/s.

Hoi, Huib, hasty of me. Of course, all the lines above 20kn are under the blue 35kn line in the graph.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Baia de l'Oiseau to Carnarvon


How ever shall I return to report with clear report to the Sultan – asked Sinbad. It must be told this island and all its fables shall be expunged from the annals of every thousand and one night. The wind howls here, and sun be none (it’s Winter, Sin, ed.) and all days from the west, but let’s launch anyway and see if we can work our SOL Balloon north as the days pass aiming for Asthralaya, where The Mahabharata tells the ancients once tested mighty weapons, about a quarter and a million qasbah away (2500nm, ed.), perhaps one month.
