NOR for Maui Practice: 01/08 @ 1800 utc

Description: Fast* paced Slalom or 'Figure 8', using a mid course 'Gate'

Start Line: is between M5 and M1 - SW is OCS
This also comprises the 'Gate'.
Course:
M5-M1 Start Line
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Pass, heading NE, between Gate
M2 - Round to Starboard
M5-M1 Pass, heading SW, between Gate
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Finish Line

(Estimated) Time En-route (ETE): 2 hours
Course Length: 15 nm
Start/Finish Line & Gate:
- Length (Width) = 0.4 nm
- Bearing to Leeward (Port) Pin = 147.5
Course Bearings:
Downwind = 240
Upwind = 60

Notes:
  • OCS = On Course Side (ie wrong side at the start)
  • Line bearing is from M5 to M1
  • * Well... fast for 12 kn TWS!
  • Course bearings may be tweaked prior to the start to reflect minor changes in forecast winds
  • Gate just means: pass through the start/finish line each leg...

This course should reward pre-start attention & thought... (plan out your strategy before 1800!) ;-)

Enjoy!

Roma per Tutti 2026


Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Guam to Ouvéa


The third race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us southeastward now down the Pacific, from Guam’s Apra Harbour at 13.5 degrees North, back across the Equator to the glorious New Caledonian resort island of Ouvéa, on the edge of the Tropic of Capricorn at 20.5 degrees South. It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981
