Organiser's course Straight lines between the marks, not the track boats sail. Named marks sit at the named island or cape, not on the exact rounding line. For planning and interest; the sailing instructions decide.
24th edition (2025) sailed Civitanova to Sibenik; ORC group course ~106 nm along the coast to the Musone mouth then across; Gran Crociera group sailed direct (~20 nm shorter).

Line honours go to the first boat home, on elapsed time. Overall winner is the best on handicap (IRC or ORC corrected time), so they are often different boats. Wind is the daily mean at the start venue over the racing days; gusts and waves are the highest of those days.

How the score works
Our own index, not an official rating. Five inputs, each scaled to its share of 100: mean wind (up to 25 kn → 30 points), strongest gust (45 kn → 15), highest waves (4 m → 20), course length on a log scale (700 nm → 25) and days of racing (7 days → 10). Wind and waves are ERA5 reanalysis at Šibenik (Open-Meteo) on the race days, so an offshore course can see more than the venue does. A missing input counts as zero and is marked. Roughest edition we hold: 2025 (38).
