I am a ex-admin of SOL who joins in from time to time.
The NoR doesnt mention marks just after the start but there are several on the playing scren. What is the go with these?
Don't worry, these are marks for the practice races held on the last few evenings. They will disappear on recall, one hour from the race start.

Super fast answer, thanks!
Also keep in mind that it is the official NOR I have posted here. You can find the Sol NOR on the right hand in the race description.

My temptation is hugging the East coast of Africa including going inside Madagascar all the way up to the first mark.
In SOL we don't need to watch out for the pirates. I suppose the Volvo boats will go East of Madagascar.

Will be an interesting leg.
The light winds at the last days of the leg might be nerve-wracking for the leaders.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 3

Leg Three of our Round North Island Series, in partnership with SSANZ, keeps the pressure on! From Cook Strait, the fleet turns north for a 187 nautical mile passage up the east coast to Napier. It may look like a quick overnighter, but shifting coastal winds and the ever-lively Cook Strait demand sharp focus. In our responsive Sun Fast 3600s, a proven short-handed racer and powerful downwind performer, tactical decisions and precise timing will make all the difference!

South China Sea Race 2026


Welcome all to the South China Sea and a virtual chase in Cookson 50’s of the Rolex South China Sea fleet, racing 650nm – as the local red-footed booby flies – from Hong Kong to Subic Bay on the southern tip of The Philippines’ Luzon Island. Chances are it will be a fast downwind ride, so see how you can keep up with the real-life fleet which we hope to be able to follow on our monitors.

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. To give each leg of the ROW a bit of length we'll try to hug the coasts as little as possible, so starting in Iceland our first leg of the series, which will also be the final leg of our Quarter 1 Ocean Championships takes us 7200nm to the Falklands, the full length of the Atlantic end to end. To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.
