	I think we should scrap the participation points all together. We have already paid a membership to do this.. And we also get points in every race we finish. It would also be possible for new members to rech the top in reasonable time. It would be a more fair system.

	Ranking systems in sailing has been up to discussion many times. It almost always falls back on the standard lowscoring system described in ISAF racing rules. Why not use it? Well tested and described (end of discussion?) and as I see it it will apply very well to SYC ranking system. For example: Use latest 15 races to conform a serie. Winner gets 1 point, 2nd place 2 points aso. You don't count 1 of 5 races. What I like with this system compared to current one: - Sailing IRL is not about winning 5 races of 30. It's about not making big mistakes. - A 5th place is worth the same for every race. It's not my fault the others didn't show up. - You have to participate, but if you miss a race you can still win. - Same system as IRL

	I certainly like your input Wiz, We are not looking at the ranking system at the moment, but when we do a review of it again we will have a good look at the system. I am a ex-admin of SOL who joins in from time to time.

	Well, I couldn't drop it... Here's an example of how it works: http://www.stenum.se/sailonline - Latest 15 races (5 discounted) - I have not included the "Sailplanner-race" and the "Experimental-Venerrace". - All sailors are included now, should be only SYC-members ofcourse. - It says "DNS" (did not start), but can also mean "DNF" (did not finish). - I made a quick rip from sailonline.org result pages so there may be errors (a webservice would be neat!) - And, no, I didn't put in any effort to make it look good... =) --- Last Edited by Niklas Stenum at 2008-06-23 11:43:54 ---

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024

Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

St Nazaire Chasse TIMED Race 2024

Welcome to a "chasse" (hunt) from St. Nazaire to La Baule on the west coast of France! This race was designed by SOLer FR_flouflou in 2010. The KER 40 was introduced to SOL in 2016 by SOLer psail, and the Sol-KER was a welcome addition to SOL’s fleet of 40- footers, as it was to the IRL Ker fleet of eponymous - like KERonimo, KukuKERchu and Ice BreaKER. This is a TIMEDrace, so you may RE-REGISTER HERE to try again, after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to show your skill and decision making after the race opens.

The Beagle in the Straits of Magellan 2024

Both before and after visiting the Falkland Islands, the Beagle extensively explored the south eastern coast of South America, hither and thither, from north of the Rio Plate to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, but it was not till the end of June 1834 that the ship made it into the Pacific Ocean, transiting via the Straits of Magellan. Online in 2024, the choice is yours - passage the strait or round the cape; 400nm or more in your Class B Tall Ship.

Prepare yourselves for an epic 30-day journey, navigating through the unpredictable waters of the South Seas.
