  • DNF rankings
    Board » Sailonline Yacht Club
    i have been on holiday and have not yet finished chicago race, i see i have a ranking DNF 363 for the race. i am going to finish the race in 4 hours or so and in the race i am ranked 374. I am not sure how this works, but does this mean that all boats that DNF get a ranking of 1 pt more than the last boat that finished, even though there are 700 boats in the race. It seems to me that if this is true, and it might not be, that it is pretty un fair for the last guy who made a effort to finish the race that all the others who dont bother come in right behind him. Surely DNF's should get a ranking of the total number of boats in the race. Other wise It would be possible if only 1 boat finished the race all the others would get a 2nd place

    and also, the prediction line in mobile client is always straight, even with twa course set, if that could be fixed it would make the client loads better, because u dont have the forecast on the MC the prediction line gives a good idea of what the wind is doing for the next 6 hours, i cant imagine that it would be so dificult. but then what would i know i am a carpenter, but as the mobile client is a bonous to people who pay to join SOLYC, a few tweaks might be in order.
    Thanks

    I really like this thread, what happened?
    is it being planned?

    I have lots of questions
    1. about orno runt, its a nice race but waiting for good weather is a pain, going with this thread in I and it seems other people cant be online at specfic times when the weather is good. So why not for a race like this set a constant wind speed that rotates 360 degrees every 7 hours. so there is a level playing field but leaves room to pick the best wind direction, and gives every one in what ever time zone a chance.
    2. a timed race round New Zealand for example, that takes a day or two or 3 i have no idea how long it takes to sail round New Zealand. so u can use TWA to sail and sail tactically according to the incoming weather.

    well thats enough for now

Africa by Sea 2025 - Suez to Port Said


When Napoleon (briefly) occupied Egypt at the turn to the 19th C, he ordered his expedition’s Directeur des Ponts et Chaussées, Jacques-Marie Le Père, to evaluate the ancient, derelict, infilled course of a Ptolemaic canal connecting the Red Sea to the Nile via the Great Bitter Lake, versus a new canal to the Mediterranean directly. Neither were considered feasible – locks to climb a pauvre-surveyed 10m sea-level difference, or continuous dredging of the Nile, would both be equally financially prohibitive. Fifty years passed before the unlikeliness of Le Père’s survey finding was challenged and a French Compagnie Universelle du Canal Maritime de Suez obtained a 99-year concession from the Khedive of Egypt, Said Pasha, to construct and operate a canal from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, much against the will of the Ottoman Sultan, Abdulmecid I (the Pasha’s nominal overlord), and the wishes of the (Irish) British prime minister, Lord Palmerston. The year was 1859, the very number of this race (planning, dear boy, planning!), which, despite the canal’s double-super-tanker gauge and lack of locks, is strictly prohibited to sailors IRL. But not SOLers! 85nm in Fareast 28Rs to complete your circumnavigation of Africa!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
