  • Re: Yacht Club Rankings-excluding races
    Board » Sailonline Yacht Club
    not sure how to respond. isn't there a weekend/weekday separate ranking for just this reason? short races favor some members more than others? so? are the rankings there for an extra layer of fun/experience or so the same people can always win? which, I am getting a little weary of myself. how about designing a ranking system that doesn't favor only a few members? I was willing to concede that I would never have a chance to be on the podium because I don't use the weather predictors some members use but this 'gaming' the rankings to favor long course racers just seems like an extra insult. as are the constant rude comments about "sheep" racers in the forum and chats. why bother with the 'short' courses at all? obviously the only important races are the one that favor the usual winners. by my count we have about one short course for every 4-5 long ones. isn't that enough of a disparity already? if members are designing these sorts of courses wouldn't that indicate they prefer to see some other type of race once in awhile? I guess the exclusion really took me off guard but SOL's concession that they intentionally favor one type of racer over another really surprised me.

    is there a reason why the Erie race does not appear in the rankings? is the 'too many buoys' complaint? missing waypoints happens to everyone. i sincerely hope this wasn't the reason it has been excluded.

    Great suggestion for the Cedar Point pass! Hope we can make the October 3rd date!
  • Lake Erie round the islands dash
    Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals
    Here's a proposal for all you Great Lakes sailors! the Google Earth file is attached.

    Course Summary: Sandusky Bay to Put-in-Bay
    Boats: Frers 33
    Distance: 46 NM
    Estimated Duration: 15 hours
    Race Type: weekend/timed

    Description: 46 NM race around the islands of Lake Erie from Sandusky Bay around Pelee Island, North Bass/St. George Island, and Middle Bass Island finishing at Put-in-Bay.

    Invitation: Help artem1s celebrate the end of the sailing season on Lake Erie with one last dash around the islands. We'll be racing with a Frers 33 and starting at the mouth Sandusky Harbor and finishing at South Bass Island. Grab a mooring ball and take the water taxi in for pizza and drinks at Frosty's when pass the finish line at Put-in-Bay.

    Designed by German Frers to optimize the new International Measurement System (IMS) rating rule, the Frers 33 was built from 1986 to 1992 and marketed by its builder, Carroll Marine Ltd. of Bristol, RI, as a racer/cruiser.

    it would be helpful if the dates of the races were listed on the individual ranking pages. then you could more easily tell which races were about to 'expire'

    thx

    I'm willing to write them about polars. Do you have any suggestions/official language about your site/org that you would prefer I use?

    I will send a list of ports and approximate dates of leg starts. There are 7 legs. they do not have start times posted yet.

    the clipper round the world race starts out of Humber, UK on 9 Sept. It would be great if SOL did a companion race. you can follow their progress here...

    is anyone's polar behaving "oddly". the prediction figures seem to be way off on mine and the indicator for speed is way out in the 18knt range yet my boat is only clocking 8knts. using J80

    thanks

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
