Very preliminary handicaps for leg 3:

TCF	
AL	1.000
AS	0.861
B	0.791
C	0.808

Note that the format has been changed (corrected?) to IRL time-on-time convention, so you now multiply your time by your TCF to get corrected.

I don't think Stavanger was expecting THIS many ......

Leg 4 needs a better and more realistic starting position. Please move it up north a bit into the fjord at least.
The server might get overloaded by all the tacking commands being sent.

Cheers, Pierre

Edit: RC promised a change once the official (real) starting point is known

Halmstad Finish.
IMHO, I think this is too far out to sea.
It is 15nm offshore and 30nm from Halmstad.

At this distance, nobody on the sea shore can see the hulls, possibly only the topsails and royals on the takkest square riggers.

Unless this is the IRL actual finish, then this finish for SoL is to far away,

In Sol all yachts can and do stop instantly on the finish line, with no real risk of running ashore.
If it breaks, it's not strong enough!
The tracker (now) has them finishing 10nm NE of Skagen. None of that tricky upwind business. The racing is a bit of a distraction from the port arrivals and shore party maybe :)
Ahhhhhh!! I see 76T. I now can understand how all of them are now making "circles in the Oceans".

My comment was really abut the draft race vs the race we have now.
Finishing 30nm from the port is a long way out, IMHO. Could even be a full days sail in these conditions.

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!
