The THIRD short, informal, practice race will be held on Thursday, 24 October 2013.

This will be a special practice race.
There are 5 marks spread around the course. Each combination of two marks (called a "leg" from now on) is associated with a certain amount of points. Participants shall cut trough marks (at maximum zoom) in an order of their own choosing. For each two subsequent mark-cuts (legs) a participant does, he/she receives the points associated with that particular leg.

If a participant sails a leg for the second time, in the same direction, no points will we given for the second time.

Participants should clearly communicate via the chat when they have completed a leg, for example "I completed leg M1-M3". (Exact channel shall be announced within 5 minutes before the start in both English and Sailtalk channel)

RACE START:
The race starts 18:00:00 utc, marks cut before 18:00:00 utc do not count. Participants may touch the mark at, and before 18:00:00. Participants may choose any mark to start.

RACE FINISH:
Towback for the real race is at 20:00 utc, the practice race will stop when all participants are placed back at SOL start. Any marks cut while being towed to SOL start don't count.

ADDITIONAL NOTE:
Practice Mark 5 will move into the wind with a speed of 0.69 knots starting from 18:00 utc.

RANKING:
- The participants will be ranked on their number of points in descending order (the more points the better)
- If two participants have the same number of points, the one that completed his last leg first will be ranked higher than the other. If it is unclear who was first, both participants receive the same ranking.
- All participants will be ranked
- No G-SCOW is awarded, as this is not a normal practice race.

USEFUL NOTE:
The amount of points per leg is roughly equal the the number of minutes it should take to complete.

Little mathematical note: It is impossible to connect 5 points with lines, without crossing the lines at some point. Try it :)

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series. Only marginally less unlikely to be ever raced in real life during SOL’s lifetime than our previous race from Tobruk to Iskenderun, this 710nm race takes us from Greece’s ancient northern port of Thessaloniki through the Aegean island maze, south east into the Levantine Sea to a finish in modern Port Said, in splendid Swan 65s!
