2012-03-10 15:13:02 - Congratulazioni to WIN - Perfect Score
I have only been on SOL since the middle of 2009 so, correct me if I am wrong, but I think WINSTON_4 might be the first SYC Member to lead the SYC Ranking with a perfect score... i.e., max top marks in the current top races that are used to calculate rank.

Click here to see what it looks like!!

V V well done WIN!!!

Obviously, the Iceland TIMED Race is still running so this perfect score may not last very long, but for now I think it really is an excellent result and deserving of publicity!!

Yes truly an awesomely consistent performer!

I can say from experience now - many probably do not appreciate quite how difficult it is to win a race on SOL (especially when WIN is racing ;-) )

So to have 33% win rate over 30 races is simply phenomenal!

What do they put in your coffee over there in Italy?

All Hail the SOLer named WIN
His racing is all without sin
He’s the best of the best;
Ahead of the rest.
…now would someone please slip him a gin??


Positively amazing and not likely to be reproduced by another.

Bravo Zulu!!

This is really an amazing achievement.
Winning races here is so difficult, every race is different and the competition is outstanding.
Winston, my sincere congratulations!

I only hope you will not get bored and stick around for a while so we all can learn a thing or two about sailing tactics.

RC ;)

Thanks for this very nice gift. Without your fantastic work in organizing the racing this result would have not been achieved.

ITA ;)
Thanks . I perfectly remember you did 11 at one stage. I can say for sure that I never aimed to beat your record..It just happened by itself.
Remember that I will never be your competitor....only your ever since wingman...;)

Aaron ;)
Thanks....I see in your words the hidden comment ( take a break !! ahahahahah ) .....I will surely do....
btw : it is not 10 on 30....it is 10 on 25 LOLOLOLOLOL

SP ;)
when I read your poetry I felt like really entering the hall of fame....thanks :)
FYI though .....I am not the best of the best ....Ask around...you will get those 2 to 5 names who have been/are the real best of the best .....

BUT
you needed a rhime !
it' ok for this time !

;) ;) ;)

Amazing performance over the last year. Congratulations. I'll be over the moon if I ever win one.

I've been looking at all the results for the races recently. Excluding the timed races, WIN has won by far the most at 36. Then brainaid (24), ita10267 (17), 76trombones (12) and jepsom (11). They are the only SOLers who have more than 10 wins. 55 have won a race. 30 have won more than one.

======================
No I did not intend to say you should take a break...!!

It adds quite another level to the race to try and win when your are in it!
The 2 races I have finished ahead of you (and also Turkey where I finish just behind) have probably been the most rewarding races I've done on SOL! (especially the one both you and ita were behind me ;-) )

San Diego Islands Race 2026


Sailonline is proud to once again partner with the San Diego Yacht Club for the annual Islands Race! This iconic offshore challenge spans approximately 140 nautical miles, starting in Long Beach, rounding the Catalina Islands, and finishing in San Diego. Shifting coastal winds and tactical island roundings will test every sailor’s judgment and nerve.

This year, our SOLers will race the Ker 40, a proven high-performance design by Jason Ker and built by McConaghy Boats. Fast, responsive, and demanding, the Ker 40 rewards precision and smart strategy. The competition will be tight. Every decision will count. See you on the start line!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
