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!

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
