  • Pirate Störtebeker - today in Gothenburg Post
    Board » General Discussion
    Hi all, saw this story in todays edition of G P. Around year 1400 saw pirates in the waters of lighthouse Borkum Riff, Germany. Their worst chief was Klaus Störtebeker with some one hundred ships. As he was caught and about to be beheaded he made a deal with the executioner: that he should let free as many comrades as he managed to walk along after he'd been beheaded!
    Story says he managed to pass 11 men! Then the executioner tripped him!

  • Re: The "two boat rule".
    Board » Sailonline Yacht Club
    Hello!
    Just heard little on this topic on chat.
    Why not two classes/types of races?
    SINGLE; one boat per player, one player per boat, only SOL controls, only current set CC or TWA, or DCs, between midnight and 0600.
    OPEN; "everything" is allowed, 2 players per boat, 2 boats per player (2nd named xxx2), routing software, UGRIB weather etc etc.
    Like now, I would go for SINGLE races, thats the challenge!

    Hi etxnebe!
    Great circle course is not a "straight" line as CC are!
    Following a GC course forces you to change CC now and then.
    Try to use the ruler and click along the May Transat rhumbline every 250Nm for example. You will find that you have different CC in most of the "boxes" created by each click!
    Any help to You?

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
