Thanks, but after looking around that site maybe Iquitos would be better as that is as far as our sol map goes

Back to the top with this one!

What would be neat is if someone could go through our races and identify which were eligible for which honour!!

:-)

A nice job for someone prepared to do the homework.

In the meantime I might try and do something for races as they crop up... maybe its something we could put in the race calendar?! or maybe not.. as this is just for fun...

:-D

NOTE
Browse the first couple of pages as there are additional badges mentioned (I hadn't spotted before)

AND

There's a zip file to download and create your avatar here:

Thanks RC for coaching me to get badges on my avatar. I have been away far too long and have so much reading to catch up on about SOL and SYC developments in teh last few years. I promise not to be absent for so long again :)

I can't remember all the plaes I have journeyed to over teh years, so been conservative with badge selection - looking forward to building on it .....

This goes round and round.. but here are all the badges with images that have been proposed. The honours are nearly all based on real nautical honours... here's some info

Page for Downloads:

Is there anyone out there who can take this further - automate it in some way? Improve on AGage's original "Badge-r"? would be great fun!

mmmm ... what's the difference between "Order of Golden Shellback" and "Sacred Order of the Golden Dragon"? ... in both definitions, it comes of the intersection between the equator and the line of date change ...

The only difference I could see from here is that the dragon references appear in connection with wooden ships??

I think we should keep with 76T's original definition for SOL on the first page of this thread.

The Golden Dragon is for International Date line... the Golden Shellback is for Lon 180/Lat 0 ...

That is how it has been up to now anyway and as so few use the badges I think its fine as it is!

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!
