    Re: Manila Race NOR
    Board » General Discussion
    Well. NOR is NOR. It can NOT be altered at chat. Chat is unformal and race can NOT be based on chat. On the other hand, it was very clear that the island MUST be left to port.
    Yes, we all make fun here. But there should be at least some respect to the ones who take the official notices seriously.

    Manila Race NOR
    Board » General Discussion
    NOR of Manila race, clearly states that Mindaro island MUST be left to port. I have not seen any change on this. And a lot of boats left the island on starboat and finish the game. Also, how can a boat finishes by passing the finish line through the opposite direction?

    Re: distance to go

    That's my point. I am sailing to nearly the same direction. Visually I am forwarding down on my course, but dtg is still 370 miles longer than my yesterday's distance.

    Thanks for the reply. My understandings :
    1- in 24 hours being located 380 miles behind a day before position is normal. No matter you sail continuously the same direction to the finish line.
    2- Better to use other tools rather than the information to be provided by the system.

    I am sure it's true:) But, I still belive there is a serious calculation mistake done by the system which leads some part of the fleet to go to the wrong direction.

    I am afraid this doesn't reply my question. Distance to the leader can vary due to the several reasons. My questions is to the increasing distance to finish line, although I am sailing in the same direction.

    distance to go
    Board » Technical Support
    Yesterday at 13:00 UTC my distance to go was 11.860 miles. Today at 07:30 I have 12.252 miles although I kept sailing the same direction. How can this be possible?

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.
