    I believe that the races with opened start, it is necessary to to say the hour border to be able to do the race. Concretly the race of cowes: when it finishes the time to be able to do the start?

    regards: sotil

    In OSTAR RACE they go two nights that one does not update the weather. I think fundamental that this type of problems must not exist and his solution has to be priority to support the fair play and equity in the competition.

    But I continue understanding that it is obigatorio to leave the island mindoro to port as to say the e-mail sent by S.O.L.

    It is a bug or Mindoro has moved 15 miles in the northern part after the start of the race?
    Regards: sotil :-)
  • Re: boat speed
    Board » General Discussion
    Wow, that I did not really understand... but if you remember your trigonometry you can calculate Vmg= BS*cos(TWA), where BS is boat speed and TWA is the True Wind Angle. Let me know if you want more :-)

    The question is that value takes BS in the computer: with two decimal ones or it rounds the decimal one.
    In the example of BS=12.56 that value takes the computer? BS= 12.56 , BS=12.5 o BS=12.6

    Thanks a lot : sotil :-)

    A rankin is mas justly if to the winner of every race the same number of points is granted that of ships registered in the same one, to 2 º =numero of registered ships less one .......
    It is a way of compensating the long races, since in these more ships registered.

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
