Hi,
I will sail without any outside help, including weather routing tools.
Good luck to all.

Bonne journée ou bonne soirée (vous pouvez choisir)

Just like IRL, I will sail SOTP
Unlike IRL, I will not even use a paper chart, SOL app only =)
declaring you will race by the proverbial "Seat Of The Pants" (SOTP) with no outside assistance from routing software or other external aids
The name of my boat is Excel
NOTE: ALL REQUESTS FOR _SOTP PRIOR TO 1000UTC ON 1 JULY (RACE START) WILL BE UPDATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE THEREAFTER.

NO REQUESTS MADE AFTER 1000UTC WILL BE ACTIONED AND THIS FORUM THREAD SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CLOSED FOR REQUESTS!

I declare I will sail SOTP/NOA (No Outside Assistance).

Good wind and good navigation to all.
I hope it's not too late to be eligible for the mighty SOTP tag, because I am proudly sailing without any assistance (and it shows!)
SOTP for me!!!
Enjoy my full night's sleep...
I declare I will sail with no external assistance.
fair winds to all of you

Great Bear Ice Race 2025


You can fly to Great Bear Lake Airport, but if the ice is good, instead hire a pick-up truck, load your disassembled DN into the cargo bed and drive, first following the McKenzie River north, and then straight across the lake to the start of our final Ice Boat series race of roughly 100nm in length. The Airport authorities have agreed to leave all lights on, so you should just about be able to see where you are going as you zing and rumble, PL-free over the ice!

Chile Islands RTI Sprint 2025


Across the Canal Puyuhuapi from Puerto Cines on the Chilean mainland lies the Parque Nacional Isla Magdelena, and further west across the Canal Moraleda from Magdelena lie the islands of the Chonos Archipelago. Returning for the first time since 2017 we find ourselves in vari-charted waters here, with the mapping between physical islands and their names not 1:1 but rather some:some. It’s only 26nm but you could get lost! Good luck.

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
