2013-08-26 13:29:38 - Hidden SOL Treasures
While sailing the SYC Leg 2 it came about during discussion in Chat that Winston posted a link to a poster of SOL Polars. A never before seen treasure, Yes OK, I know! Winston had it I know, but, this raises the query.

"Who else out there in the SOL community has treasures like this?" And I was asked to start a new Thread discussing this topic.

So my collective group of "Virtual" friends! :) If you are doing any Sailonline work on statistics, polars, websites, blogs etc etc how about letting the rest of us know please? With the imminent move of Sailonline ownership to us the community I am sure that this good work of yours and your hidden treasures will for sure be placed either here, or links to it on the web site.

Its all good stuff indeed, so I attached the pic that Winston placed for reference, or go look
here

I have for some time been thinking of adding the polars, polar csv data, Winstons recent boat profile pics, pictures of the same yachts to my website boatshed and this fell into my lap. Then again I am not so sure that I want to place all our polar csv data in the public domain for use by competitor sailing sites so this I will not do for now!!!

I will start this off by saying I am logging race results from inception of SOL and posting these to a website http://jawz@co.za. In terms of the SYC Club Championships I will be uploading before the end of the month some stats regarding aggregated sailing times for Legs 1 and 2

Cheers for now

George

For the Record I believe 76T actually offered that link as I was saying I have some (about 20) of the PDF poalr graphics but not all of them.

Visually it is easier to compare one boat to another by way of these files dowloaded from Brainaid's site for each race. As I am planning a new race, exploring boat choices was my main interest. I wish to Thank 76T for the friendly assistance he provided.

and I mentioned in an email that TheHorn has a spreadsheet of races run etc ... so maybe y'all can get in contact with each other....

There must be lots of treasures out there.

76T has already made that amazing Fleet "poster" which is apparently made up of individual tile pictures!!

The Fleet Poster.

When do we get the answer to the quiz? I would like to cut and paste these profiles into my Boatshed!

Great Bear Ice Race 2025


You can fly to Great Bear Lake Airport, but if the ice is good, instead hire a pick-up truck, load your disassembled DN into the cargo bed and drive, first following the McKenzie River north, and then straight across the lake to the start of our final Ice Boat series race of roughly 100nm in length. The Airport authorities have agreed to leave all lights on, so you should just about be able to see where you are going as you zing and rumble, PL-free over the ice!

Chile Islands RTI Sprint 2025


Across the Canal Puyuhuapi from Puerto Cines on the Chilean mainland lies the Parque Nacional Isla Magdelena, and further west across the Canal Moraleda from Magdelena lie the islands of the Chonos Archipelago. Returning for the first time since 2017 we find ourselves in vari-charted waters here, with the mapping between physical islands and their names not 1:1 but rather some:some. It’s only 26nm but you could get lost! Good luck.

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
