Fully agreed with the seniments above re the client upgrade... Kudo's to Aaron (wherever he may be sailing fair winds now)
I like to talk a lot... sometimes I even make sense, mostly not...
Toujours ému lors des courses au sujet d'Aaron Gage. je ne pouvais pas faire les autres. Dommage
Agage's 100 Race 2014

SOL's gift to the memory of AGage was a year long series of races circumnavigating Australia. This was the final sprint of that memorial and now being raced to mark the 2nd anniversary of the too-sudden end to the life of this remarkable SOLer. These were Aaron's homewaters - he was a total competitor so... race to win!

Grazie per tutto Aaron, riposa in pace.
While six years seems a long time, in so many ways it feels like just yesterday that we learned of Aaron's unexpected death. Every day on Sailonline, there is something to remind us that without him the site would be so much poorer. {{{Hugs to his family}}}
The AGage 50 is being raced again (first run in 2015).... and one of the races Aaron designed (the Tour Downunder) is also in our 2019 Q3 calendar.

For those new to Sailonline this thread, and our honouring Aaron's memory with at least one race a year, should show just how remarkable a contribution he made, not just in matters technical, but also in the enormous amount of personal time he gave to helping all new to the platform.

<raises a glass> Still missed, mate.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
