@ cal sorry darling for the joke!!!! you tempt me lolllllllllllll now you know!!!!!!!

MO-PAYEPAYE
I agree with Schakel. I am one of those who hasn't sailed during the last months because of:
1. I disagree to sail in the same competition as routers
2. the amount of races to sail is to much to keep you up in the ranking
"Sailing is an Art"
We do agree that WE need time anyway to be hight in the ranking!!!
But for my part I do think that it's a big stimulation to compet with some who r using routers!!!!
Caus you learn a lot!!!
MO-PAYEPAYE
Right now in the top 10 ranking I garantee that 5 of us ( maybe more)are not using routers!!!!!!!!!!!!
MO-PAYEPAYE
You are right! I do agree with you kath!

the discusion router - non router is a non discussion. It is very possible to do good in rankings as a non router, but it is time consuming.

To my opinion at least the wiz rankings are missing.( nation+newbie)
To atract newcomers and give them some competition introduce a ranking for them in which they compete 10 out of 20 races
That way they make quick ranking progres against players in the same situation.
Nations cup might be fun as wel.
More divisions may be added but i am fine with the current ranking system
it would be helpful if the dates of the races were listed on the individual ranking pages. then you could more easily tell which races were about to 'expire'

thx
I occasionally post a list of races most likely to be dropped from the rankings. Last one was about a week ago.

The sea is lovely, dark, and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to sail before I sleep, And miles to sail before I sleep.
As a non-router I think that you may learn more from competing with routers but I think it would be much more fun to compete against non-routers only.
The main reason is that when competing against routers you know that they are going the best route considering the forecast will not change. If there
are only non-routers the outcome of different tactics would feel much more uncertain and the race would be much more exciting.

An easy way to test this is to set up a couple of races for non-routers only. No ranking points for these to start with.

Brisbane to Keppel Tropical Yacht Race 2025


When the winter weather turns cool in southern Australia sailors head up to the warmer waters of The Great Barrier Reef and the big winter regattas at Hamilton Island, Airlie Beach and Magnetic Island. But the race isn’t ‘on’ this year; nevertheless, Sailonline is inviting all racers from RQYS and beyond to race the 343 nm for the fun, this time in our SOTO 40. It might be winter downunder but do put on your shorts and t-shirts before you sit down behind your devices to get into the spirit of it all!

Haugesund to Reykjavik 2025


In late April 2016 Draken Harald Hårfagre, the worlds largest viking ship built in modern times, left her home port in Haugesund, Norway and sailed off for a challenging voyage across the North Atlantic Ocean.
The aim was to explore and relive one of the most mythological sea voyages – the first transatlantic crossing, and the Viking discovery of the New World, more than a thousand years ago. History tells us about the Viking explorer, Leif Eriksson, who discovered America over 500 years before Christopher Columbus. The expedition was all about exploring the world, just like the Vikings did.
Sailonline is racing the 1000 nm first leg, from Haugesund, Norway, to Reykjavik, Iceland in our Farr 400. Let us sail in the wake of history on this epic adventure!

Africa by Sea - Swakopmund to Maputo 2025


Time again to continue our exploration of Africa by Sea, which now takes us around the tip of the continent at Cape Agulhas and up the coast of South Africa to Mozambique’s marvellous Maputo, where we should find good anchorage in the bend of the Rio Espirito Santo (Umbuluzi) once we’ve cleared the 60m high Maputo - Katembe suspension bridge. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be glad to be sailing our comfortable and sturdy Xp-55, as we will certainly experience more headwinds!
