    Re: SYC Ranking - Different races should have different ratings
    Board » General Discussion
    I think the current ranking is as fair as it can be, as it was set up to have one ocean race going at the same time as a midweek/weekend race.But this doesn't seem to have been happening for a while.
    The weekend races don't finish in the weekend. This is part of the reason I havn't rejoined and don.t race much,maybe others too.
    Although it is great to have the buddy up races I don't think they have a place in SOL if they start at stupid times, like the current RNZ race which started at 01.00 midweek, hence i assume that is the reason that there were only about 80 boats to start on time, it could have easily been moved to the weekend.
    We have to remember that some of us have jobs to go to, unlike the sailors racing in the real races.

    Check in the morning. It will probably go into archives overnight as it only closed today.

    Glynn,
    Your points are always calculated, but when you are a non member you dont see them or go on the ladder.
    So the points you have acumulated will show up when you join.

    Hi Steve,
    Yes it is possible...What you need to do is..ie:the next race starts at 12.00 midday UTC,Set your delay for 8 hours at 03.30 UTC( dont forget to set your course and tick the delay box).Your command will go off at 11.30 but your boat wont be released until 12.00.

    Hi Guys,
    I am sure the ranking points are always there, they just arn't visable to non members.So when you rejoin your ranking will be about the same.
    Yes an reminder is sent for membership renewals.

    Hi Mage,
    The Christams race closed on 28th December at 23.00 UTC as was stated on the race discription on the home page.
    Races have a closing date, so the server can be freed up, so new races can start!!

    Colours
    Board » General Discussion
    Is it possible to change some of the colours of things on the course.
    Our own boat is Magenta,lead boat is simular. Sometimes when the lead boat jumps ahead you think it is your own boat.Marks, arrows, names and rumbline are red. In the shorter races when the fleet is tightly bunched it gets a bit hard to define what is what.Or maybe even put the arrows away from the mark, say one before and one after and the names further away from the marks. Also is it possible to make the BS and VMG numbers in the steering tab a wee bit bigger.
    Thanks

    Re: rounded and disrounded
    Board » General Discussion
    Removing the waypoint at Flannan and allowing the option to go east of the isle of Lewis might open up a new debate as you wont be going "Around Britain and Ireland"
    As Cajun said in the IRL race you have to keep all islands to starboard thus making sure the boats go round Britain and ireland as the rece name suggests.

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!

Thessaloniki to Port Said 2026

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series. Only marginally less unlikely to be ever raced in real life during SOL’s lifetime than our previous race from Tobruk to Iskenderun, this 710nm race takes us from Greece’s ancient northern port of Thessaloniki through the Aegean island maze, south east into the Levantine Sea to a finish in modern Port Said, in splendid Swan 65s!
