You mean the root URL http://www.sailonline.org/ mid? Never knew there was such a link, but...
1/ click on 'Race Leaderboard' then click on 'HOME' (two clicks instead of one), or
2/ edit the URL of your open browser window by deleting everything after .org/

Excel for Graduate Dummies

Board » Technical Support

Here's my Excel workbook at https://mega.nz/fm/J5RXgaTQ
for navigating the OD65 from the pre-AGL days. Mega is a free 50MB Cloud store from NZ. I'm just trying it out. Could be I need to share it with others case by case, but perhaps you can just pretend to be me - jan.vanderpuil@gmail.com with pw sa1lonl1ne.
I still use this workbook and its many sisters if I'm sailing Qt-informed but 'by hand'. DON'T UPDATE LINKS, but do allow macro's.
The tab PerfLoss works out PL solutions for you.
The tabs vgprecis and vhprecis give you a read-out of your upwind, downwind and hopping angles. Click the button in cell B1 to toggle from up- to downwind and edit the TWA in cell B1 to pick up different hopping ranges. If you reduce your browser window by bringing in the left margin, you can check your angles as you race.
The tab PerfLoss works out PL solutions for you. How you use that, and the other sheets (WhichEndAgain is quite good)I leave you to figure out yourself.
Nothing is protected, so if you are going to use it, be sure to keep an original copy (which of course you can always go fetch at Mega).

A SOL original that really ought to be an annual affair, IMO.

Current Races:

Valletta Sprint 2021
Welcome once again to the Mediterranean and a true SOL perennial. At 588nm in often light Mediterranean airs, to-date no boat – multi or maxi, SOL or IRL – has managed to best the US's Rambler’s time of 47:55:03 for this course set during the 2007 Middle Sea Race. This year, we offer you our Orange 125 catamaran, so the record is on!

GO TO RACE

Guadeloupe PYOC 2021
And now… SRC presents…. the PYOC of all PYOC! It is less than 3nm from the estuary of Point-a-Pitre on the south coast of Guadeloupe to the shoal bay directly north of it on the other side of the island, but, alas, a buoyed channel that might take you there is blocked midway by a bridge and a marsh, and anyway, on the SOL chart, that channel ain't there at all. So, expect to have to sail at least 62nm in mercifully relatively nippy Seacart 30s, port- or starboard-round, to win this one, and not to show ahead of boats who just came out to watch the start, until you are nearly home.

Cape Horn TIMED Run 2021
Welcome to Chile, welcome to Cape Horn, and welcome to a course round these inhospitable waters. This is a place with plenty of wind and strong currents. Our 161 nm triangular TIMED RUN goes around two groups of small islands that are an important nesting site for a number of southern seabirds. Last raced in 2018, we are back here in our updated IMOCA 60s to attempt the challenge once more in these wild waters!
