2012-03-10 15:13:02 - Congratulazioni to WIN - Perfect Score
I have only been on SOL since the middle of 2009 so, correct me if I am wrong, but I think WINSTON_4 might be the first SYC Member to lead the SYC Ranking with a perfect score... i.e., max top marks in the current top races that are used to calculate rank.

Click here to see what it looks like!!

V V well done WIN!!!

Obviously, the Iceland TIMED Race is still running so this perfect score may not last very long, but for now I think it really is an excellent result and deserving of publicity!!

Yes truly an awesomely consistent performer!

I can say from experience now - many probably do not appreciate quite how difficult it is to win a race on SOL (especially when WIN is racing ;-) )

So to have 33% win rate over 30 races is simply phenomenal!

What do they put in your coffee over there in Italy?

All Hail the SOLer named WIN
His racing is all without sin
He’s the best of the best;
Ahead of the rest.
…now would someone please slip him a gin??


Positively amazing and not likely to be reproduced by another.

Bravo Zulu!!

This is really an amazing achievement.
Winning races here is so difficult, every race is different and the competition is outstanding.
Winston, my sincere congratulations!

I only hope you will not get bored and stick around for a while so we all can learn a thing or two about sailing tactics.

RC ;)

Thanks for this very nice gift. Without your fantastic work in organizing the racing this result would have not been achieved.

ITA ;)
Thanks . I perfectly remember you did 11 at one stage. I can say for sure that I never aimed to beat your record..It just happened by itself.
Remember that I will never be your competitor....only your ever since wingman...;)

Aaron ;)
Thanks....I see in your words the hidden comment ( take a break !! ahahahahah ) .....I will surely do....
btw : it is not 10 on 30....it is 10 on 25 LOLOLOLOLOL

SP ;)
when I read your poetry I felt like really entering the hall of fame....thanks :)
FYI though .....I am not the best of the best ....Ask around...you will get those 2 to 5 names who have been/are the real best of the best .....

BUT
you needed a rhime !
it' ok for this time !

;) ;) ;)

Amazing performance over the last year. Congratulations. I'll be over the moon if I ever win one.

I've been looking at all the results for the races recently. Excluding the timed races, WIN has won by far the most at 36. Then brainaid (24), ita10267 (17), 76trombones (12) and jepsom (11). They are the only SOLers who have more than 10 wins. 55 have won a race. 30 have won more than one.

======================
No I did not intend to say you should take a break...!!

It adds quite another level to the race to try and win when your are in it!
The 2 races I have finished ahead of you (and also Turkey where I finish just behind) have probably been the most rewarding races I've done on SOL! (especially the one both you and ita were behind me ;-) )

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!

New Ice Age 2026 - Neumayer Station to Scott Base


For a second-half of long-distance ice-boating, we take our DNs to Antarctica for a circumnavigation of that continent in two legs clockwise, in harmony with the prevailing winds (such as there are), beginning with a race from Germany’s Neumayer Station to New Zealand’s Scott Base. It’s about 3500nm, which, 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?!
