       Well onboard LK things were going ok, then stuck in a boring
       meeting for 3hrs - I should have set another nav point, but
       trying the ration them - bad idea.
       Oh well on the plus side, I've not had a hairy yet!!!  tempting
       fate or what ;-)
       Clearly VR has had brain fade:

       Ahhh sorry Emma, I also added foils about 3hrs into the race
       (yep, cheating)

       Are we looking at the same race? I have CarlToad sailing a storm
       way up front and looking good - currently 141st overall.
       B9 is also struggling with the cards, so far I've used one nav
       card only, and critically no Auto Sail (which led to a sail
       malfunction this morning!) but planning to use a bunch of
       waypoints and Auto Sail tonight.
       Good luck all

       I suspect the rankings are nm from the next mark of whoever is
       looking at the rankings. The fact that I crossed in the opposite
       direction from Emma around afternoon tea-time means I'm further
       away from her next/nearest mark.
       I'm sure it'll settle down ... though once I round mk8, I'll be
       going in the "wrong" direction again.
       I'm dropping back in the rankings as those East of St Kitts are
       now fast enough to foil.
       Oh and many thanks to B9 for sharing his little wisdom gems,
       without which ... ahhh ... I'd be witch-less
       Now ... back to my magic spell casting .... hubble bubble toil
       and trouble ...

       Hi Skippers,
       Sorry, this is how VR is working out the ranking table - clearly
       wrong as it now has Carl last.  O
       Let me have a rethink.
       Em

       Em, I wouldn't worry about it as it usually works. This figure
       of 8 course x 2 just isn't going to work.
       The only way is to click on each team member and scroll across
       to see the nm to finish. e.g. I'm 311 nm while you're 350.8nm
