    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

Red Eye - Hobart Convict Run 2026

Back in 2010, one of our SOLers of the first hour, AUS_Scott76, came up with this ‘Convict Run’ out from Hobart, past Cape Raoul and the penal colony of Port Arthur, round Tasman Island, up and back down the east coast of Tasmania, to finish with a tight technical run – so Scott called it – up the picturesque D'entrecasteaux Channel, home to Hobart once again. It’s 250nm, ideal for a bit of ‘Red Eye’ in comfortable Finngulf 43’s, and if the original idea was to pick up some convicts on the way for a bit of R&R and sea air, you may always drop’m back before returning to Hobart!

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
