We had a pair of protests. Static protested me in the first race and after the races were all over, I decided to withdraw from that race rather than contest the issue. This lead to an amusing scenario. Static was sailing Tako with test/non-standard scripts to see how it would perform in race conditions and had asked that his results not be counted for that one race, so he withdrew from the first race as well (as agreed upon before we started). So... both Static and I dropped out of race one and I was protested by a boat that was DSQ'ed before the race had started. But this was in the name of better tako scripts, so it was well worth it.Besides... one race is not really that important.

Race two created more controversy after the event ended with a fairly interesting protest scenario. This time I was not one of the principles... instead I ended up being the protest committee since nobody else was available who I felt comfortable asking to interpret a complex racing rules situation. The problem with small fleet sailing is that you can easily run out of sailors who are not not directly involved in the protest. We really need to recruit more knowledgeable sailors, but that is a different issue.

This was an instructive case of "some positions on the race course are dangerous to be in", and holds many lessons for those interested in learning to use the rules to their advantage, which is something I heartily encourage. Using the rules is specifically allowed. Rule 2 states that
"A boat and her owner shall compete in compliance with recognized
principles of sportsmanship and fair play"
If you read the ISF casebook for interpreting the rules Case 78 states:
"A boat does not break rule 2 by slowing another boat's progress in a race,
provided that this tactic is intended to benefit her own series result,
that the boats are on the same leg and lap of the course, and that in
using it she does not intentionally break a rule."
So studying the rules is to your advantage. Interpreting them makes things interesting for everyone

So... here is the interesting scenario, based on the evidence available to the protest committee (which was somewhat limited since one of the principles did not stay for the entire event and was not present for the hearing).

Boat A and B are both approaching the windward mark on starboard tack, close hauled. It appeared that neither boat will be able to round the mark without tacking onto port then tacking back onto starboard tack. Boat A is ahead and to leeward of boat B which puts boat A outside of B relative to the buoy. Boat A starts turning into the wind and collides with boat B just before boat A is head to wind. Boat B claims that boat A was tacking too close and attempting to tack onto port. Boat B was holding a close hauled course on starboard, then headed up into the wind when it became clear A was not going to clear her but did strike boat A and protested A. Both boats then turned onto onto port tack after the collision. Boat A did not accept the protest during the race, and was not available for the protest hearing after the race.

The protest committee determined that boat A did not hail for room to at the mark, nor did A hail for boat B to head up into the wind. In other words, A did not hail that she was attempting to force B up into the wind, and did not give B sufficient time to respond to being forced up into the wind if that is what she was attempting to do. In light of this, the protest committee found A had fouled B and disqualified A from that race. This was either a case of A tacking too close or attempting to force B to a head to wind course but not allowing B sufficient time to respond. Either way, the protest committee finds that A fouled B. The protest committee found it very likely that A was in fact attempting to tack, since she needed to get over to the port side of the buoy fairly soon to be able to round it properly.

Much discussion ensued, as other sailors suggested that A might have been within 2 lengths of the mark and should have been entitled to buoy room. There is a problem with this theory. First, A did not hail asking for room and second, rule 18.2 says:
"If there is reasonable doubt that a boat obtained or broke an overlap in time,
it shall be presumed that she did not"
There is reasonable doubt in the mind of the protest committee that A was within 2 boat lengths of the windward mark, and that an overlap existed, so I presume that she had no right to buoy room.

The moral of the story: approaching the windward mark on starboard you may find it difficult to execute a tack onto port without getting in some difficulty as other boats on starboard converge on the mark and are not interested in letting you pass in front of them. Being stuck inside and needing to tack onto port soon may require you to go BEHIND starboard tack boats, and lose some position. You need to clearly establish overlap and bouy room if you are going to claim it. There are some bad spots that you can get into on the course, and A appeared to have gotten into one of those. Some hailing asking for room or telling the other boat to head up into the wind might have helped A's case, but none of that was in evidence.

A clear awareness of relative position is vital, and I try to keep an eye on where the boats behind me. For instance, Case 15 states:
"In tacking to round a mark, a boat clear ahead must comply with
rule 13; a close hauled boat clear astern is entitled to hold
her course and thereby prevent the other from tacking"

There are scenarios on the race course where you can gain advantage even when behind by holding your course and preventing the boat ahead from going where they want to go, and that is fair and expected behavior, at least in the circles I sailed in in RL. Some interesting ideas for how the real pros use the rules to their advantage may be found here:

While I accept that the protest committee has made its decision and that decision is final, I thought it would be worthwhile for those who geek on ROW to know the other side of the coin on this issue from the people of the peanut gallery.

At the protest hearing, there was a model recreation of the event by someone who then asked if it was an accurate representation of what had occurred, which Boat B said it was. This established the following scenario:
Boat A and B were approaching the windward mark on the starboard-tack, close hauled. (Translation for my benefit: as close to the wind as possible.)
Boat A was clear ahead of Boat B before the tack. (Had they been overlapped, Boat A would have been leeward, but it is important to note that it was clear ahead.)
Both Boat A and Boat B would have to tack onto port then onto starboard to clear the buoy.
Boat A had not passed head to wind at the time of the collision.

What I don't remember is if the protest committe acknowledged what was established by the peanut gallery:
Boat A was within the two-boat zone of the buoy.

The protest committee determined that Boat A did not hail Boat B at any time prior to the collision, which meant Boat B did not have sufficient time to respond. Thus, Boat A was disqualified.

What follows are every rule that seemed to be used in this case:
Section A Right of Way
13 While Tacking
After a boat passes head to wind, she shall keep clear of other boats until she is on a close-hauled course. During that time rules 10, 11 and 12 do not apply. If two boats are subject to this rule at the same time, the one on the other’s port side shall keep clear

Section B General Limitations
16.1 When a right-of-way boat changes course, she shall give the other boat room to keep clear
(16.2 relates to boats on opposite tacks)

Section C At Marks and Obstructions
To the extent that a Section C rule conflicts with a rule in Section A or B, the Section C rule takes precedence.
18.1 When This Rule Applies
Rule 18 applies when boats are about to round or pass a mark they are required to leave on the same side, or an obstruction on the same side, until they have passed it.
(18.1(a) and (b) refer to the starting mark or opposite tacks)
18.2 Giving Room; Keeping Clear
(a) Overlapped: Basic Rule
When boats are overlapped the outside boat shall give the inside boat room to round or pass the mark or obstruction, and if the inside boat has right of way the outside boat shall also keep clear. Other parts of rule 18 contain exceptions to this rule.
(b) Overlapped at the Zone
If boats were overlapped before either of them reached the two-length zone and the overlap is broken after one of them has reached it, the boat that was on the outside shall continue to give the other boat room. If the outside boat becomes clear astern or overlapped inside the other boat, she is not entitled to roomand shall keep clear.
(c) Not Overlapped at the Zone
If a boat is clear ahead at the time she reaches the two-length zone, the boat clear astern shall thereafter keep clear. If the boat clear astern becomes overlapped outside the other boat she shall also give the inside boat room. If the boat clear astern becomes overlapped inside the other boat she is not entitled to room. If the boat that was clear ahead passes head to wind, rule 18.2(c) no longer applies.
(d) Changing Course to Round or Pass
When rule 18 applies between two boats and the right-of-way boat is changing course to round or pass a mark, rule 16 does not apply between her and the other boat.
Overlap rights
If there is reasonable doubt that a boat obtained or broke an overlap in time, it shall be presumed that she did not. If the outside boat is unable to give room when an overlap begins, rules 18.2(a) and 18.2(b) do not apply.

19 Room to tack at an Obstruction
19.1 When safety requires a close-hauled boat to make a substantial course change to avoid an obstruction and she intends to tack, but cannot tack and avoid another boat on the same tack, she shall hail for room to do so. Before tacking she shall give the hailed boat time to respond. The hailed boat shall either
(a) tack as soon as possible, in which case the hailing boat shall also tack as soon as possible, or
(b) immediately reply ‘You tack’, in which case the hailing boat shall tack as soon as possible and the hailed boat shall give room, and rules 10 and 13 do not apply.
19.2 Rule 19.1 does not apply at a starting mark surrounded by navigable water or at its anchor line from the time boats are approaching them to start until they have passed them or at a mark that the hailed boat can fetch. When rule 19.1 applies, rule 18 does not

Now that all the rules mentioned during the protest and afterwards are on display, look at the scenario again.

Does Rule 16 apply? Section C specifically states that the rules in its section take precedence over the rules from the previous two sections. Rule 18.2(d) also makes this clear.

Does Rule 18.2(a) or (b) apply? It was confirmed by the person making the protest that Boat A was indeed clear ahead as they were nearing the windward mark.

Does Rule 18.2(c) apply? It was my belief, as others, that it did. However, the protest committee never acknowledged if she believed Boat A was in the two-length zone required for this rule to go into effect.

Does Rule 18.2 apply, as was stated by the protest committee? Boat B acknowledged that Boat A was clear ahead, so how does a rule about overlap apply unless the protest committee believes the boat was *not* at the two-length zone at the time of the tack -- thus the tack itself created the overlap?

Does anything from Rule 19 apply? We're not talking about an obstruction requiring *substantial* course change to avoid, so I would say no.

What about Rule 13? The protest committee quotes Case 15, which states:
"In tacking to round a mark, a boat clear ahead must comply with rule 13; a close hauled boat clear astern is entitled to hold her course and thereby prevent the other from tacking"
However, Boat B acknowledged that at the time of collision, Boat A had *not* passed head to wind, which is required for Rule 13 to go into effect.

Had this protest gone to another committee, it is possible that Boat A would not have been disqualified based on another interpretation of the rules. So what am I trying to say by this very long post?

1. I object.
2a. I know an objection isn't going to get me anywhere on this particular ruling.
2b. It probably doesn't get me many brownie points either.
3a. While hailing is HIGHLY ENCOURAGED LIKE MAD, it should not be used as a means for disqualification when the nonhailing party had ROW the entire time.
3b(1). The fact that hailing *is* used as a means for disqualification means that the VYC values hailing over certain ROW, making it a modified ROW venue.
3b(2). Not that there's anything wrong with that.
4. It's not a bad thing to leave a protest hearing hanging for a day or two while you gather up all the information needed to make the best decision. Some cases just aren't clear cut enough for quick rulings.
5. I do agree with Pixeleen that ROW can be used tactically during a race, but you're increasing your chances of getting protested on it.
6. There is no number six.
7. It's always a good idea to keep in mind your boat's state during a race, which I think is easier to do than trying to figure out where all the other boats are. Not to say ignore the other boats, it just helps to know when you happen to be on starboard tack or leeward, just in case...
8. I'm right.

In RL sailing, you never see a port/starboard conflict without yelling BEFORE the collision. It does not happen. Boats are always telling the other boat they want room, head up, starboard, etc... and the other boats acknowledge the hail by saying things like "OK", "hold your course", "No!". Since hailing is a crucial part of running civilized races, I tried to invent some ways of mapping this into SL, and these days I see no excuse for not hailing the other boat. Particularly when we have varied levels of expertise, hails are vital to help everyone get an idea of what is happening. This is just like what happens in RL, and it is also good sportsmanship.

The best mechanism I have for re-enforcing good behavior is in deciding protests. If you want to assert right of way I suggest you hail about it. I want to map RL sailing as closely as possible onto SL sailing, and that is what VYC is all about.

Something that is already exactly like RL sailing is second guessing protest committee decisions. Have fun with that... its normal.

A few comments:

1. In real life, it would take 1/2 a second or less to glance over your shoulder to check for a boat that is windward of you and to make sure you have room to come up while also leaving room for them to keep clear. In SL, it would take significantly more time then that to adjust your camera and return it to forward.

1. B. The mini-map is not sufficient to do anything more then know if there are other avatars in your general area. If you have sufficient time to stare at the mini-map to determine if the other dots are racers and if they are closing, dropping away, or on a completely different tack or course -- then you obviously aren't "in the heat of the race" and your likely not to have to assert row anyway. I don't know about others but I'd need at least 2 to 4 seconds to use the mini-map to get anything other then the very most basic situational awareness, and certainly not enough to make an informed decision about hailing to assert row, or to give *specific* requests via hail.

2. Hailing in RL does not require the skipper and the "entire crew" (in SL the skipper and the crew being one and the same) to stop doing everything else they're doing, just so that they can hail. In RL you do not have to take your hand off the tiller or wheel, you don't have to let go of the sheets, you simply YELL. In SL, you have to take your hand (or hands if making a specific request) off the keys needed to adjust your tiller and adjust your sheets, so that you can Hail.

2.B. Yes I understand that you can use gestures to minimize the "hands off the controls" time, but that limits you to a relatively small number of "canned" or predefined hails. I myself have added three -- but making specific requests or naming specific boats would likely require both hands and take a number of seconds.


3. Time Compression. In RL, if you loose 5 seconds in a response time, it's likely not to matter. Hell it could likely take more time then that to pull a sheet in, or begin a tack. In SL, if you hit the windward mark at a fast enough speed, 5 seconds gets you from outside the 2 boat length mark, into it, maneuvered between two other boats that are floundering, and well on your way to clearing the 2 boat length distance with your spinnaker deployed -- and if your good, half adjusted already.

So what are these comments about? It's not only more difficult to have an accurate situational awareness, but to do the hail itself is harder in SL then RL (because you have to type it).

I applaud your attempt to make SL sailboat racing as close to RL as possible, but I also implore you to understand that the unique limitations of SL make it extremely difficult to emulate certain RL behaviors.

[Edit: Shifted part of this to a second response.]

Please clarify:

1. VYC will not enforce ROW unless a hail is made?

2. If a skipper is unable to attend the comittees deliberations, then said skipper forfeits their right to ROW, or at least significantly weakens their case despite the availablity of testimony from the protester and other witnesses?

I just want to make sure exactly what the rules are. If hails are required then I want to know that if someone does not hail to assert their ROW, then they don't have ROW.

The only reason why I'm calling this into question was that based on the testimony of the person filing the a particular protest on Tuesday, the protester had not only a better situational awareness then the skipper that got protested, but that from the protester's own testimony the "defendant" had ROW the entire time. The deciding factors in this case did not seem to be a careful deliberation of the rules of ROW along with the relative positions of the boats, but rather the fact that A) The skipper with ROW did not hail to assert ROW and B) The skipper that got protested was unable to attend during the committee's deliberations.

It appeared these two factors, more then the written rules of ROW were the reason the skipper in question was DSQ'ed.

Unless I've completely missed something in the use ISF ROW pdf that states that no skipper will have ROW unless they hail. I acknowledge the fact that hailing is good sportsmanship, and that hailing can prevent these issues from happennning. But I do not think simply hailing or not hailing should be the basis for a ROW ruling, except in cases where situational awareness is called into doubt.

For example: an overtaking boat that has come up on the leeward side of another boat. The skipper being overtaken (windward boat) will likely be unaware of the overtaking boat, so if the leeward wants the windward boat to come up, they should have to hail for the windward boat to come up.

The counter example being, if the windward boat has a very high level of situational awareness, for instance the boat with ROW is clear ahead AND the destination of the boat with ROW is not only known, but clearly within the line of sight of the non-ROW boat, then the boat with ROW should not be required to hail.

I concur, but I believe VYC's current execution is flawed. Protests should require supporting evidence, not the opposite. If a protest is brought before committee without decisive evidence either way, the finishes should stand.

To do the opposite encourages frivolous protests and casts a chilling effect on ROW manoeuveing on the water. There are countless more cases where boats meet with ROW clearly evident and readily negotiated without hails, especially in SL's fast-paced control-limited environment, than there are where hails are required or protests filed. Present VYC precedent holds that a boat without ROW could protest any such instance after the encounter and the ROW boat would be penalised in absence of hail.

The burden of proof should be on a protester.

Additionally, hails are not the only means of evidence. Often protests come about due to differing interpretations of the rules, both parties' account of the incident in perfect agreement, especially in a learning fleet. Chat logs with hails become important only as supporting evidence for conflicting accounts.

The protest committee's first responsibility should always be to fairly interpret the rules; to encourage good behavior is a distant second only as it bears upon the first. Anything less is not ISaF RRoS.

Save in very specific instances, the rules do not require hails to go into effect, nor do collisions revoke ROW. Leave behavioral encouragment to the race committee, not the protest committee. Where the same person serves both roles, she should make a deliberate point to wear the appropriate 'hat' where required.

We all seem to agree that hailing is much desired in SL sailing, but it seems where we conflict is whether hailing is necessary to establish ROW. Myrrh brought up a good example on how requiring hailing can be abused. Static brought up a good example on how the boat with the best situational awareness is not always the ROW boat.

What this latest protest hearing shows is that a boat that had ROW the entire time and was in the position of lesser situational awareness of the non-ROW boat(**) will lose a protest simply because it did not hail. Boat A did everything right except not hail a boat it couldn't see.

* Whether Boat A had ROW the entire time is debatable, because the entire protest hinges on the fact that Boat B was sufficient distance from Boat A prior to the tack, thus Boat B can state it was keeping clear of the ROW boat until it wasn't given time to keep clear by the tack. This is a whole other can of worms because SL sailing is much more compact and much faster than it would be RL. What does it take to keep clear?

** It is hard to see what's to your side and behind you in SL. There is no problem seeing in front of you. If hailing is going to be a requirement, that means a boat is better off hailing every time it does something, for fear of what is to the side and behind. Imagine a race where everyone has to yell "I'm tacking!" just in case there's a non-ROW boat nearby that they can't see. I'd say that hailing is definitely the burden of the person with better situational awareness, and that's not always the ROW boat.

My question is the same as Static's: is ROW only enforceable in the VYC if the boat hails?

My opinion is the same as Myrrh's: trying to encourage hailing is a different beast from interpreting the rules fairly.

Well, boat A had ROW save where required to give boat B the ROOM she needed to KEEP CLEAR. Basically it becomes a judgment call - did B not do her duty to KEEP CLEAR or did A not give sufficient ROOM?

That the collision occurred doesn't provide clear evidence either way, and in this case even the accepted account of the incident doesn't, either. This is where hails by either party would go a long way toward establishing their case: boat A hailing to KEEP CLEAR or boat B hailing for ROOM.

Lacking any clear evidence to support the protest, I don't believe it should stand. I've already detailed my objection to the opposite interpretation, namely that it places the burden on all ROW boats to continually hail lest VYC house rules equate lack of hail with forfeit of ROW, ecouraging otherwise non-ROW boats to protest at every opportunity and win by default. Sure, I can program a HUD to continually shout KEEP CLEAR!!! every two seconds, but that's asinine and counter to both the spirit and the letter ISaF RRoS.

Saturday 06 May 2006 results:

It's not a VYC regatta unless we throw in a bit of the unexpected. Last Saturday was no exception with a new time, different host, and a new course set up at the last minute.

The new 7 pm SLT start time seemed to sit well with everyone's schedule, so expect this to continue with next Saturday as well.

The evening started with a last second field promotion for yours truly from event mocker to event organizer, followed by the decree that disorganization would reign supreme for the VYC... which was really nothing more than making an official statement on what everyone already knew.

Earlier in the day, it was discovered that the north and west side of the Ryukyu Island had opened up to boat travel once more. A buoy was laid out at a friendly port of harbour in Seonhan, and a everyone was given the incredibly well thought out and detailed instructions of "go there, come back." The return of sailing through the Yongchon province en route to Seonhan was celebrated with much fanfare and fireworks by the local inhabitants.

We somehow managed to get through five official races, which we might have actually done in the hour and a half allotted time if the evening's host had started the regatta at 7:05 pm SLT like she had threatened instead of ten minutes later. The first two races were the standard Triangle Course, the next two races were to the new mark at Artificial Island in Seonhan, and the last race was the Medium Course around the island in Banpo. The fleet then hung around for a bit after the official races to do a few practice Triangle Course races and one more swing around Artificial Island.

No protests were made, no matter how much the previous event organizer willed it to be so, and the only complaint was the lack of prompt scoring -- which the new event host laughed at heartily. Suffer the anticipation of hearing ones' race results.

Right, so here we go.

Pixeleen was the clear ahead winner, getting first place for two races and second place for two others. Even with the throwout race, she won. Oli was second with two first place finishes and two fourth-place finishes. Had a vortex not hit the leading boats coming to the finish line on the last race, the final tally may have gone Oli's way. Such are the dangers sailing the treacherous southern seas: the wind giveth and they taketh away.

Race Results Tue 9 May 2006

Continuing on with my newfound power, I ran the races once again for Tuesday. After a few of the short Triangle Course in Sanchon, we returned to 'round the island sailing for the whole Ryukyu Island thanks to Static's work on getting a south passageway opened. However, this race was still not without its dangers as large builds, invisible barriers and ejection scripts still pose their threats. Then after one spin around the island we teleported to the old South Linden Continent for a new sailing locale at the Sorrowful Lake of Leeching Teen Donuts (name courtesy of post-race grog). This lake consists of several void sims set with 60 minute auto-returns, so with a little advanced preparation, we can get a couple good races in before buoys start getting returned. The course possibilities are endless.

I believe the third race saw a huge jam at the start line with boats ramming into each other. Remember, ROW is always in effect, so don't be afraid to hail for the space you need even if the race hasn't officially begun.

This Saturday will be the return of Pixeleen to hosting duties unless she gets some other poor sucker to do it for her. I'll be on the road and away from the computer. It will be a trying time.

Couple things about the scores. Static kicked our asses. Myrrh showed the importance of finishing a race no matter how hopeless it may seem: while his horrible finishes netted him last place, the alternative was a DNF score a couple points higher. This hurt Pixeleen's scores especially, but she's a trooper and did not cry.

See you on the waters!

Playing against type, I decided to see how many races we could do in 90 minutes if we just ran short courses inside Sanchon. We got 12 races off... I think we could have pushed it to 13 if we really tried, but since it was already the 13th of the month, that seemed like asking for trouble. Who says sailors are superstitious, anyway?

With 12 races, there were three throwouts, and Static was convincing with all firsts and seconds after the throwout races. Mel made a welcome return to the racing scene and got second place, and Skippy got 3rd place overall and won three races. This is the first event she has won a race in, so the practice seems to be paying off. Skippy also joined the racing outlaws club (I'm a charter member) by getting protested and withdrawing from one race. Since this is all in good fun, sailing agressively and getting protested is just part of the game as far as I am concerned.

Speaking of games... after the races were over, a few of us retired to the pirates pub, rehashed the races, and talked about the VYC Challenge to SYC. Is anyone awake over there in SYC? Let's do a real club vs. club match race series, for fun and glory. I hope to represent SYC and beat VYC (ok... I AM strange), so I'm interested in hearing what the SYC selection criteria will be. Come on... it will be fun!

skippy Spatula: OK Oli, that time I did it right, did I not?

This sounds like a cool idea.

here is the challenge (first issued two sundays ago in-world, issued again in-world last sunday, and posted last sunday in the forums as well) :
---
As I mentioned at the meeting, the VYC-SYC challenge I issued last week still stands, if SYC someday wants to entertain the possibility of working with another club as equals. This woud be much more in the spirit of the America's Cup, which is something I would love to see in SL. I would structure this with each club stating what its selection process would be. People keep pointing out to me that we are one community, so I'd expect each club to allow ANYONE to sail in their selection races, (and most serious sails would sail in BOTH club's selection series to improve their chances of getting to the finals and practice). Clubs would then offer the top 3 sailors from each club's selection process the opportunity to represent that club, and the sailors could decide if they wanted to represent or not. We'd then run match race between the representatives from each club to determine the winning club. In the event one or more of the representatives of a club were not present at the finals, one of the other representatives would take their place. Finally, we would hold the finals at a neutral site (probably the big area of void sims connecting the mainland to the bulk-purchase sims (near picasso sim) so that this would be seen as a scrupulously fair and neutral venue. I'd use this event to agitate that the Lindens allow for a permanent set of bouys in this area, and a permanent SLSF starting line as well. Oh yeah, and I'd sail my heart out to get to represent SYC against VYC. What a great heart warming story that would be... and no matter what happened I'd be happy

So... the challenge still stands Mark. Whenever you feel up to it, let me know.

Pixeleen,
Lets put this one to rest. I will not agree to a SYC v VNC contest because:
1.In the present environment, It can only serve to continue the differences between you and I.
2.It would be a sham because the rosters of active skippers are pretty much identical

Vyc Rulez! Syc Suxxorz!

Let's all keep the discussion on-track per Mark's comment. Further club challenge discourse would best be located in a new thread.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americas_Cup

...The America's Cup regatta is a challenge-driven yacht series
that involves match racing (a duel between two boats) and,
recently, fleet-racing (racing with three or more boats)...

...The syndicate which owned the America donated the Cup through
a Deed of Gift to the New York Yacht Club on July 8, 1857. The
trophy would be held in trust as a 'challenge' trophy to promote
friendly competition between nations...

...One of the most famous and determined challengers was Scottish
tea baron Sir Thomas Lipton. He would mount five challenges between
1899 and 1930, all in yachts named Shamrock, two of which were
designed by William Fife. One of Lipton's motivations for making
so many challenges was the publicity that racing generated for his
Lipton Tea company, though his original entry was at the personal
request of the Prince of Wales in hopes of repairing trans-Atlantic
ill-will generated by the contentious earlier challenger...

series 43 - saturday may 20

Since Sanchon harbor was filled with boats for the big boat show,
we took the racing show on the road and sailed from the SLSF starting
line VYC sponsors in Torch. I wish I would say that the sailing was good,
but for some reason there was much more lag than I have seen in the
Sea of Sighs in the past. Perhaps there was some lag inducing activity
in the neighborhood, or the void sims in the sea of sighs are now paired
with void sims somewhere else or something. In spite of the adverse
conditions, there was some very tight racing.

series 37

I'm catching up on scoring some old series here. My excuse for not
doing these sooner is that sundays have typically been my catch up
day for sailing related maters, but the "discussion" of Al Kaiser's
proposed events on two consecutive sundays took time and energy
away from more useful pursuits like scoring races. But I need to
get these done so I can work on my comix, so for you history fans
here it is:


official results:

series 42: tuesday may 16

Since VYC is training for the upcoming America's Cup, I decided we needed to get some practice at starts and tactics, and ran 12 short course races in 92 minutes inside Sanchon. We even had a 5 minute break (so Mel could clear his cache and reload). Pacifien won, but skippy was right on her heels with impressively consistent finishes.

I pulled off one amazing port tack start (and won that race). I also screwed up another port tack start and did a 720 when protested by Pacifien. One thing that was different about this series was that there was a bit more variablility to the wind, so one side of the course was not consistently advantaged, and starts were tricker. There were two cases of one or more people trying to barge at the start that ended in tears for those trying that tactic. I strongly suggest everyone take a look at this web page

http://www.rit.edu/~wjbite/ramya/Starting.htm

which explains nicely why barging at the start is nice if you can slip in, but that you really have no right of way when you try this maneuver, and should look out for others who may cut you off, force you to tack, or force you over the line early. Barging at the start can be a lot like the port tack starts in that if it works you look great, but you are also taking a big right of way risk. This sort of thing is what makes sailing into such a cool dynamic chess match. Racing is not just about speed, its also about positioning.

VYC Regatta Results
Tuesday 23 May 2006

The Boat Show is still ongoing and growing at the VYC home port in Sanchon, which means there's currently a rather large galleon where our start line should be. It was up to me to find another stretch of water to sail, which is a task I left to the last hour.

Thus did the Vagabonds land at FairChang Island, which some of the old veterans to SL sailing may remember. I chose it because it was easy to tell those unfamiliar with the place the course: counterclockwise around the island. For such a simple instruction, the course turned out to be more complicated than I thought with a multitude of obstructions on the water and a bottleneck at one point. The winds also proved to be a different experience for everyone, a good half the speed of other venues.

Hopefully, no one was too frustrated with me as I managed to leave planning to the last minute once again. I know reaction was really mixed on this course, but that diversity is the strength of the VYC.

Saturday may mark the return to Sanchon, as Pixeleen is starting to feel a bit homesick for her open seas and fast winds.

We ran three single-lap course around FairChang Island, followed by one attempt at a multi-sim course that proved frustrating on border crossings. Deciding it was best to stick to one sim then, I switched to three-lap courses for the final races.

Kitty Sprocket and Jaime Spackler managed a tie in the scores, so I went to the last race that both of them sailed together. Jaime came out ahead on that particular race, putting him ahead of Kitty in the final results.

First-place was a very close race between Myrrh Massiel and Static Sprocket. Myrrh came out ahead with only a 0.25 point difference -- a lead she almost lost when she managed to irk the race director who threatened a 0.5 penalty for snark. Be kind to your race directors, people. They can hurt you.

It was my sad duty to tear down the boat show in sanchon saturday so that we could go back to racing (I loved that boat show... sniff, sniff). However, I consoled myself with being able to sail in a low lag environment again. That was small consolation since I was firmly stuck in the middle of the fleet. I thik I have been spending too much time working on real SL Comics, or something.

Myrrh won the regatta convincingly, and skippy again came in second place, followed by Faykin. We did 12 races in 90 minutes, and given what a pain it is to score these monsters, I think I'm going to run some longer courses, just to keep from getting swamped by race results. I do think everyone's starts are improving though, so maybe this is worth the trouble.
