Race Report at 0120z:

At this time most participants had left their fortunes to their autopilots.

They passed the southern point of Capri in this order:

1-Zero
2-Smo (very close to leader
3-Tazumaki/mk (together)

5-K1W1
...and, RC (reverse rounding,) Spookie, Sassy, newsartist (reverse also)

Still approaching after 'adventures' or late starts, Stoertebaeker, rdoorn, Glynnwi, croc, and 76Trombones.

With 14 boats, our largest Match Race field to date?
Fortunately, stoertebaker made a note of the results of those who made it to Procida - as follows:

stoertebaeker 08:21: Intermediate ranking of matchrace: 1. K1W1, 2. sassy63, 3. mk, 4. stoerte, not yet finished DTG: RC 1.8nm, newsartist 4.7nm, spookie 12nm,Tazumaki and 76 Trombones beaced at ischia south beach, other boats further

Panama Canal 2026


Sailing in the Panama Canal isn't the best idea, and organizing a race there is simply impossible and unfeasible IRL. In SOL, we have slightly different rules, so why not? A 36nm, frantic race awaits us, and the fast Dehler 30 OD will help us navigate the Panama Canal with grace.
