Aaron would have been hard to beat in this race. It's a pity he's not here to follow.
Il n'est jamais trop tard pour rendre hommage à un gars formidable.
Aaron, ta disparition crée un grand vide.
Sincères condoléances à sa famille et ses amis

It is never too late to pay tribute to a great guy.
Aaron, your death creates a vacuum.
Sincere condolences to his family and friends
AGage is now and will be in every race we hold as the client is his lasting legacy for this special community. His dedication, genius and passion for life, sailing and SOL are evident in each course change we make, each Wx forcast reviewed, each polar explored and on and on.

More than anyone other than my children, the thought of Aaron enters my mind daily as I continue SOLing in his honour.

AG... until we meet over the horizon.

Your friend and student,

William/SP

Dear departed friend Aaron:
I do this race utilizing the tools that you so generously developed for our community. I'm sure that there will be boats somewhere where you are
Sail on Aaron, you will be with us.
Do it today.
When does leg 2 start? Can't wait.

Please publish the times for all the legs and/or include in the race calendar.

Cheers, Kevin

It looks like Leg 2 has been scheduled to start Tuesday 23rd Oct at 2200 UTC. Wednesday morning in our part of the world.
RC has put an updated calendar up on the homepage and in the forum. I'll start a new thread for Leg 2 soon.
As for the other Legs, the idea is to have one per month so that we arrive back in Adelaide around the 1st anniversary of Aaron's passing.

The Beagle in the Azores 2024


And west the Beagle went one final time to round the Cape of Good Hope on May 31 1836. Ashore, Darwin met up with the Astronomer Royal, Herschel, who just happened to be in South Africa at the same time mapping the southern skies. After sounding out his many ideas on evolution and extinction with Herschel, the Beagle now sailed north, stopping briefly in St Helena, Ascension and Brazil, and the Cape Verdes again, to reach the Azores on September 19, 1836. Fitzroy and Darwin at this stage were in a hurry to get back to Britain, but online in 2024 we will stay a little longer to explore this final remote archipelago in our virtual Tall Ship Class B Beagle, 630nm round and about the islands, minding as always in these waters not to bump into any large cetaceans!

Lake Victoria Sprint 2024


Welcome to Lake Victoria, home of the final sprint of Q4 and 2024. This Saturday we will sail our Lasers from Kaazi to Entebbe - 18 odd English miles in a cooling breeze, however slight it might be. Friends there will host an end of year BBQ of Luwombo, Muchomo, Matoke, and other delicacies. We will all sleep well after that. Now that the year is done relax and take in some sights like the Botanical Gardens and National Zoo. Enjoy the holidays and rest, 2025 sprints are a month away.

Christmas(W) to Christmas(E) Island 2024

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, so prepare your 90ft well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2024 challenge of a reversed race, starting in the Indian Ocean, racing to the Christmas Island in the Pacific! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2024. Please have fun! Fair winds!
