OK,I'm a dummy. I can't figure out how to see the various polars before picking a boat! Not much time left. Can someone point me the right direction? Thanks.

If I understand the handicapping correctly, 'uprising' is performing best in these low winds. I do like max VMG at 180 to the wind!!!!
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

Interesting boat, uprising, actually sails faster downwind at TWS 8kn than at TWS 11 kn. How they do that?

Here is my suggestion about the polar for "uprising", as shown in both the original presentation and in the SOL screen. This was requested by "WhyNot".
It does suggest an error may have been made in deriving the polars---and that the superior performance of 'uprising' may actually be due to a calculation error????

That makes sence! I noted the "strange behaviour approaching finish line. Saw a couple of uprisings on "long final" sailaing approx TWA 180. Thought maybe I could catch them - but No Way. Suddenly they went into OverDrive:) Saw this in Navmonpc (and I know Nnavmonpc may not be accurate) Also uprisings well behind caught up. I think the boats are performing according to the weird Polar.

Magical Mediterranean 2026 - Benghazi to Korcula

We return to Antiquity’s Middle Sea for a seventh celebration of all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil.

Red Eye 2026 - Georgian Bay

Welcome to the sensational scenic Georgian Bay of northern Lake Huron, the first area of the Great Lakes to be visited by Europeans in 1615, so former SOLer A2R informed us when he designed this geometrically tortuous course of 317nm criss-cross through its island maze. Originally known as Lake Manitoulin, in 1822 the bay was renamed after King George IV after his succession to the throne. This time we’ll take the very flashy Fareast 31R, which hopefully should keep you wide awake!

Welcome to the fourth of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International . This fourth race is from Stavanger in Norway into the Skaggerak to a finish off Denmark’s Aalborg and perhaps an Aquavit to toast the adventure afterwards – a final circa 250nm in Sailonline’s classic Clipper 240.
NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!
