    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!!!

    Is there a key on this site to all the flags for the members. I would love to be able to identify and learn them. Thanks, Moongirl

    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.

Tall Ships 2026 - Harlingen to Antwerpen

NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!

New Ice Age 2026 - Neumayer Station to Scott Base


For a second-half of long-distance ice-boating, we take our DNs to Antarctica for a circumnavigation of that continent in two legs clockwise, in harmony with the prevailing winds (such as there are), beginning with a race from Germany’s Neumayer Station to New Zealand’s Scott Base. It’s about 3500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!
