Here's my Excel workbook at https://mega.nz/fm/J5RXgaTQ
for navigating the OD65 from the pre-AGL days. Mega is a free 50MB Cloud store from NZ. I'm just trying it out. Could be I need to share it with others case by case, but perhaps you can just pretend to be me - jan.vanderpuil@gmail.com with pw sa1lonl1ne.
I still use this workbook and its many sisters if I'm sailing Qt-informed but 'by hand'. DON'T UPDATE LINKS, but do allow macro's.
The tab PerfLoss works out PL solutions for you.
The tabs vgprecis and vhprecis give you a read-out of your upwind, downwind and hopping angles. Click the button in cell B1 to toggle from up- to downwind and edit the TWA in cell B1 to pick up different hopping ranges. If you reduce your browser window by bringing in the left margin, you can check your angles as you race.
The tab PerfLoss works out PL solutions for you. How you use that, and the other sheets (WhichEndAgain is quite good)I leave you to figure out yourself.
Nothing is protected, so if you are going to use it, be sure to keep an original copy (which of course you can always go fetch at Mega).

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!

Andaman Islands PYOC 2025


The Andaman Islands are an archipelago, made up of 200 islands, in the northeastern Indian Ocean. Together with the Nicobar Islands to their south, the Andamans serve as a maritime boundary between the Bay of Bengal to the west and the Andaman Sea to the east. These waters will be the theater of our next 240nm race in the ARCH 2025 series. Which one you choose depends only on you, i.e. your Elan 410 sport will leave the Andaman Islands on the starboard or port side.

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!
