ShamrockPirate 12:24:
There once was a race to St. Pete
I started quite well with the fleet
The first leg was fast
But I finished dead last
As my DCs steered me to Crete!

That's a good one, Stoertebaker. I hope Shamrock Pirate will find Crete more pleasant than St. Petersburg.


On Looking Like a Winner till You Don't

Donatella the sail racing ace
Who has led almost all of this race
Found a jolly good breeze
Up at 30 degrees
Which now costs him a bit of his pace

Here is one I saved from Up Helly Aa:

Rod from Up Helly Aa:

Rod 14:32: There was an old sailor from SOL / Who thought that HE knew it all / He DC'd all the courses / But they were for horses / He ended up losing it all.

Onwards Towards Cook Strait - Southern Latitudes Grating on our Nerves

I know a bright woman named Cal
Who's a sailor and everyone's pal
She likes to spank asses
Unlike other lasses
She's a regular salt AND a gal

Awesome mouthansar et al!

Didnt realize I was being discussed in the chat!

Like viking71 - honoured, although he did take out the race so more deserving of it ;-)

This has started yet another 'SOL artform', I will have to put some thought into one myself! I never had the patience to produce 'track art'.

Edit: As gender is not identified on SOL, perhaps using neutral terms unless you know a specific SOLer is a he or she would be good idea?

I agree, Aaron. Indeed, I thought that was what I did. Please alert me, if I made a mistake on gender.

And to whomever concerned: My sincere apologies.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Masirah to Chagos


Having crossed, re-crossed and re-re-crossed the Convergence Zones of the Pacific and the Atlantic, we now face our second crossing of the Convergence Zone of the World’s third great equator-spanning sea, the Indian Ocean, taking us from the channel between Masirah Island and the Oman mainland to the Chagos Archipelago. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be sailing our very fine Archer 78, and won’t mention that both locations (of departure and arrival) are heavily militarized and the why’s and what next’s concerning that – mindful as always of SOL Netiquette.
