2014-01-14 18:16:29 - Lake Winnebago NNYC 150th Anniversary Race
Sailonline is delighted to announce that it will be joining Neenah Nodaway Yacht Club in the celebration of 150 years since the club was incorporated in 1864, making it one of the oldest yacht clubs in the USA.

Normally, Lake Winnebago is covered with ice and snow, but for this race, it will be ice-free, and ready to welcome all SOLers to take to the water on J-80s. Chat with NNYC club members during the race and do make time to visit the online club archives.

Race start is 18 January 2014 at 1600utc.

Hello,

I am pleased to announce on behalf of the NNYC board of directors that the winner of the Lake Winnebago NNYC 150th Anniversary Race will be awarded a T-Shirt and other goodies from the NNYC Ship's Store - http://www.nnyc.org/store

Tune those rigs and get ready for another great SOL race on Lake Winnebago. Watch for NNYC boats along the way, and if we pass you, keep in mind that the lake is frozen right now, and we have skates on our keels :)

Good Luck SOLers!

Derek (Note: zowee is now NNYC Scooter)

Hello SOLers!

Here is a Lake Winnebago chart, in case you would like to use it for the race:

If the chart doesn't work well for you, feel free to "google" Lake Winnebago and find other images.

Thanks to all who participated in the race! The Neenah Nodaway Yacht Club was thrilled to sponsor this year's race to kickoff the club's 150th Anniversary Celebration. We realize that the hour was late for Europeans, and the winds were lighter than we would have preferred, but it was a fun event for us - see our race day photos at http://www.nnyc.org/online-race and Sailonline gained several new "SOLers" as well as several new SYC members. Watch for NNYC boats in future SOL races.

Next Race: 00d 00h 00m

Current Races:

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!
