I haven't found anything regarding that yet. Where have you seen that?
From the FAQ.
Do i have to round the waypoint at Mauritius Islands?
Yes you must! The waypoint is located Northeast of Mauritius Islands " 20000’00”S 580 00’00”E " and is marked with a 30 foot orange flag and Buoy! You have to sail to Cochin leaving it at PORT, no matter the distance from the Mark. You can sail directly to Cochin if you wish but you won't be able to finish the second leg according to regulations.
Look at us. Competing in a sailboat race and not a cross word among us. Change is in the wind though, I'm trying to figure out how to beat all you scurvy dogs (oops, my inner pirate is showing) I'm rolling along at 13.2 knots with no engine, how green of me.
wmalloy382,
Thanks for updating the list and putting THT names with the boat names. My short attention span is making it nearly impossible to keep one with the other in my head.
I must've been tooling along at 5kt for a few hours at least...fell a few places....clearly I need to check more often
This buoy thing really is fouling things up....I think going south was the smart move....the top few boats in the game all went that way
Don't feel too bad, when I checked in at 7 am I lost 60 places. That was a real smart move I had running up the coast. I'm tacking back over now and paying for it.

A mind is like a parachute, it only works when its open
Yeah, tacking east now to head toward the islands. Paying the price as I'm sure I'll fall behind now to get around the islands.
Gotta check in more often but work gets in the way.
Good luck boyz!
Don't feel bad Fast, I was planning on doing the same thing. Already had the spinnaker on deck, now I am having to squeeze back to starboard and with the upcoming wind shift things are not looking good. Especially, since I will be out of touch all day tomorrow!
