Hi I missed the first mark on this race. I went back and rounded but it does not show I rounded and nor any of the other marks rounded and Im getting an increased mileage to the finish. Is there an issue as I def rounded the marks but the system does not seem to acknowledge it!!! Im not sure if I should go back or just carry on!!! Please help. Many thanks

Hi I missed the first mark on this race. I went back and rounded but it does not show I rounded...
Tim, I'm afraid you didn't retrace your track correctly. If you pass the wrong side of a mark you have go back that side like unwinding a string wrapped around a post and then pass on the correct side. That is why you are still shown as not having passed correctly and continue to go down the rankings. We have all been there.

Thanks Tyger your a star...I assume I must go the the wrong way round the mark in reverse to get back on track!! Yups what a big learning curb. Im sure the site has some advice on this somewhere but its a new one on me....think I may just have a long bbq on this race until it closes. Thanks so much for your help. Sol is such a great site for friendly and helpful support much appreciated. BR Tim (PR)
Pocket Rocket - a browse of the SOL Manual (p21) may be of help. Just click on the Manual link at the top of this page and then on the SOL's Client Manual link.

There's a lot to learn in SOL and it takes ages to find all the functionality and, once found, to remember to use it!

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.
