I messed up a bit yesterday and dropped to the 1600s, but have made a bit back and now in 506th. I managed to get south quite a way and am now smashing west(ish) at 15kts.

I have set up a group in the game called forumites if anyone wants to join. I haven't worked out what it is good for yet though!
Yeah, there is a big hole just where Craiggo is. Hopefully I gybed off in time (although tomorrow not looking great on the forecast...)

It's a bugger when that happens as you just have to sit and watch your place go way up. My hole cost me 50k places in the end, so try and use that as a target to come under  Can you imagine what it must feel like in real life if you do that?

I'm down as rwoofer. Been trying to eek out some West in my course, but being forced South due to big holes. When I lose speed badly I will go straight West to get through the light wind band asap.Have worked my way up from 154k to 117k in the last 24 hours or so. Nearly back to where I was before I planted myself in a hole...this is hard work and I'm quite enjoying it.

What usernames are you all under in the game? If we add as friends then our boat show on each others screen. Nice going with 209k - I am at the lofty heights of 79k ish.
Sail change probably needed about 3am. Maybe I'll ask the wife to do it.
Edit: I am Dougal13
