    Re: Manila Race NOR
    Board » General Discussion
    Well. NOR is NOR. It can NOT be altered at chat. Chat is unformal and race can NOT be based on chat. On the other hand, it was very clear that the island MUST be left to port.
    Yes, we all make fun here. But there should be at least some respect to the ones who take the official notices seriously.

    Manila Race NOR
    Board » General Discussion
    NOR of Manila race, clearly states that Mindaro island MUST be left to port. I have not seen any change on this. And a lot of boats left the island on starboat and finish the game. Also, how can a boat finishes by passing the finish line through the opposite direction?

    That's my point. I am sailing to nearly the same direction. Visually I am forwarding down on my course, but dtg is still 370 miles longer than my yesterday's distance.

    Thanks for the reply. My understandings :
    1- in 24 hours being located 380 miles behind a day before position is normal. No matter you sail continuously the same direction to the finish line.
    2- Better to use other tools rather than the information to be provided by the system.

    I am sure it's true:) But, I still belive there is a serious calculation mistake done by the system which leads some part of the fleet to go to the wrong direction.

    I am afraid this doesn't reply my question. Distance to the leader can vary due to the several reasons. My questions is to the increasing distance to finish line, although I am sailing in the same direction.

    distance to go

    Yesterday at 13:00 UTC my distance to go was 11.860 miles. Today at 07:30 I have 12.252 miles although I kept sailing the same direction. How can this be possible?

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
