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.

Re: Sailonline Ocean Race Standings

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.

Round Greenland 2024

Just as Skip Novak was embarking for Kamchatsky, Amyr Klink also quietly slipped his Antarctica moorings and by now Paratii 2 has reached Reykjavik, where he invites you to join him on Leg 5 of our High Latitudes Series, a full 3650nm circumnavigation of Greenland. The course is clockwise round, so down the North Atlantic to Cape Farewell, then up the Davis Strait into Baffin Bay and on into the Arctic Ocean proper, where, hopefully and certainly virtually, Paratii 2’s special ice-breaker features will get us thorough the summer ice out onto the Greenland Sea and back to Reykjavik. Stay warm!
