    Re: Sailors with routers
    Board » General Discussion
    For me it's like buncha's way to sail at SOL. When I'm sailing IRL, I don't care about my virtual boat. The same is when work disturbs my online sailing. I start days too late, I sail without routing, I abandon (virtual) ships because of the other activities and I'm happy when I stay in the top 50.

    Use whatever you like to use. If you feel well while using ist, use it. There's at least one boat that searches it's way all alone. A masterpiece in engineering (when it's succesfull) but a different way to have fun than my way. I don't care and I don't need additional classes.

    But there will be the day when I win a race!

    I know this error when using Puffin on the iPhone. Classic client helps always then.

    Re: Performance loss
    Board » Technical Discussion
    I have no access to the code and it would be useless for me if I have :)
    The limit of performance loss is easily to see, when you ping-pong narrow channels by DCs. You will stay near 93% all the time and you will be 7%+bbq-time behind the leaders at the finish.
    I want a performance loss limit for my IRL-boat and for my personal human performance loss too :)

    Thanks all for your support. We found the reason below the steering wheel. We'll try to repair it tomorrow.
    The sudden tack with the kite up was really impressing.
    Next leg saturday :)

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
