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!!

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?!

Viareggio Bastia Viareggio 2026

Our sixth race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil - was planned to be our third buddy-up with another incredible Italian event, the Viareggio Bastia Viareggio (or BVR for short). Unfortunately, in-real-life the BVR has been cancelled this year. But online we shall race it never the less. It’s a quickie – a 160nm roundtrip there-and-back in classic Class 40. Have fun, and if you’re planning a BBQ, piccola isola Capraia halfway across is simply lovely!
