    Well said, hmm, and thanks for the link to the tools page; I, for one, was not aware until now checking them out.

    We owe a lot to Aaron for his efforts - I just wish there was some banner with his name on the new client!!!

    I did my own math. My lowest 7 races put me at total 421, which would have been #32 in club ranking, 3rd highest American. Now I feel better! Fair winds all.

    So it's really true that the only way to find out your standing in the ocean race is to be a member? Are non-members included in that standing - if not then it's an honest ranking. I'm sorry that I cannot afford the money right now, but it sounds like even if I joined, it would be too late to be ranked. So in reality, whenever you are being beaten by a nonmember, don't worry because it won't count against your ranking (just phantom boats at sea). I raced all 10 of them, and I think I did pretty well overall, but I guess I will never know. I will probably not race on SOL again.
    I don't mean to seem ungrateful, because I am, but I am disappointed. I thought of the Ocean Race as one entity and that SOL would rank all boats at the end of it, like they do with individual races. Racing on SOL for the last 18 months has been the only time in my life that I have been competitive and it doesn't seem to bring out the best of me. Thank you guys for all your graciousness and good spirits. Gybe ho!

    Will there be an overall rating for the entire race? I have raced every leg, although not every inport and wondered how I rank.

Susan Hood Trophy Race 2026

Lake Ontario Offshore Racing (LOOR) welcomes racers to Sailonline’s virtual version of their annual Susan Hood Trophy Race. This year, this pleasant weekender on western Lake Ontario will be of about 60nm in length, and online for convenience will start and finish at the Port Credit Yacht Club (PCYC). At or before the real-life Skipper’s Briefing a decision will be made to race the course clockwise (course Delta) or anti-clockwise (Echo). If there is time we will match this online. As before, the race is the first of two that will count towards a special Sailonline's LOOR Series medals, but this year we sail in Jeanneau Sun Fast 3300s. Bon voyage!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - St Helena to Cape Verde


The fourth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us out of the Pacific into the Atlantic for a 2200nm race in Judel Vrolijk 62’s, from the desolation of St Helena, there where Napolean Bonaparte saw out the end of his life, to the even greater desolation of Fogo in the Cape Verde’s. You’ll have to cross the equator, with the coasts of Africa and South America your only navigational restrictions.
