	I agree with Schakel. I am one of those who hasn't sailed during the last months because of: 1. I disagree to sail in the same competition as routers 2. the amount of races to sail is to much to keep you up in the ranking "Sailing is an Art"

	We do agree that WE need time anyway to be hight in the ranking!!! But for my part I do think that it's a big stimulation to compet with some who r using routers!!!! Caus you learn a lot!!! MO-PAYEPAYE

	the discusion router - non router is a non discussion. It is very possible to do good in rankings as a non router, but it is time consuming. To my opinion at least the wiz rankings are missing.( nation+newbie) To atract newcomers and give them some competition introduce a ranking for them in which they compete 10 out of 20 races That way they make quick ranking progres against players in the same situation. Nations cup might be fun as wel. More divisions may be added but i am fine with the current ranking system

	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 occasionally post a list of races most likely to be dropped from the rankings. Last one was about a week ago. Find it here: http://tinyurl.com/2f278f9 Cheers, Philip

	As a non-router I think that you may learn more from competing with routers but I think it would be much more fun to compete against non-routers only. The main reason is that when competing against routers you know that they are going the best route considering the forecast will not change. If there are only non-routers the outcome of different tactics would feel much more uncertain and the race would be much more exciting. An easy way to test this is to set up a couple of races for non-routers only. No ranking points for these to start with. Lattjolajbanladan

Capt Anderson's Resupply TIMED Race 2024

Welcome back to the Pacific Northwest for a race that takes us around the southern end of Vancouver Island and up the west coast as we supply six lights. The leg starts in Victoria, and we sail into the open water of the Salish Sea. After making our way up the west coast we must go up the narrow channel to restock in Port Alberni. This is a TIMEDrace, so you may RE-REGISTER HERE to try again, after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to show your skill and decision making after the race opens.

Neumayer Station to Biscoe Wharf 2024

It’s Autumn now in Antarctica, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. The penguins are starting to huddle together to keep warm and the sea ice is growing. Time to get back to Biscoe Wharf then, before the water becomes impassible. Including a detour past Argentina’s main two Antarctic stations, it’s only 1900nm, so, although we’ll be in a hurry, we will take the bigger, better ice-classed Paratii 2 once more, just to be sure!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
