Commentary
The “Tyrrhenian Tour 2024” was the closing race of the ARQ1 classification. Not all contenders were lucky. Only 81 yachts finished the race. What was disappointing was the small and relatively weak participation of the Italian team in their home waters. Their honour was saved only by ITA210, which ultimately took 5th place.
Commentary
In the first sprint of Q2 76 solers registered, 66 boats set sail, and 62 finished. Our podium was separated by only 10 seconds in 5 second steps. As is typical of sprints every second counts and in the top 11 there were 3 ties separated by the server to the non-visible milliseconds. The top 14 boats finished within 40 seconds. Well done! Those are tight margins and any could be on the podium in that group given a tiny shift in a course decision. The result is a thrilling finish with nail-biting tension as the server sorts it all out.
Sailonline.org is pleased to once again team up with the organising authority of the Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025 to introduce a 2024 'Prelude' of the real race. With Sailonline's almost real time weather downloads from NOAA, this is intended to give prospective entrants in the real race next year a great opportunity to test their weather navigation skills. The 'Prelude' is timed to run at a similar time of the year as the real race so weather patterns may be similar.
Commentary
It was a terrific downwind blast for the 108 virtual TP-52s, of the 116 that set out from Brisbane in the early hours of Good Friday UTC morning, the 29th of March, to make it to Gladstone little more than 36 and a half hours later as indeed it must have been for the real life 33 finishers from 33 monohull and 3 multihull starters, whose leading contenders got there even slightly quicker. Low attrition rates are always a good indicator that folks are having fun!

FELICITATIONS Rick1_95 !!
FELICITATIONS ALP317 !
French skippers Rick1_95, whose report you can read, and ALP317 had an excellent performance, taking 2nd and 3rd place respectively. We are particularly pleased with the excellent place of ALP317, who joined us only in January this year. Our current leader WRmirekd, did not disappoint either, winning the race and the first quarter classification.
Unfortunately, there was also a failure of our server, which was fortunately repaired quickly by the technical team. We would like to thank everyone for their involvement and congratulate the winners.

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024
2024 Prelude
Race Start: Saturday 20 April 2024 at 0000 UTC
(1000 AEST Melbourne time).
The Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race is a 5,500 nautical mile 2 handed yacht race - one of the longest two handed yacht races in the world and the only one running from the southern hemisphere to the northern hemisphere. It encounters multiple weather systems and seasons as it crosses the Pacific ocean. The course takes the competitors into Bass Strait, up the east coast of Australia into the southeast tradewinds then through the ITCZ (Inter Tropical Convergence Zone – the Pacific Ocean Doldrums) on the equator. It then heads into the northeast tradewinds to the finish in the port of Osaka.
The race, first held in 1987 to commemorate the 120th anniversary of the opening of the Port of Osaka, is held approx. every four years to celebrate the City of Melbourne and the City of Osaka sister city relationship.
The 2025 event coincides with major events in both Melbourne and Osaka. 2025 will be the centenary of the visit of the US Navy’s Pacific Fleet to Melbourne in 1925 and it is anticipated that a substantial fleet will return to acknowledge the continuing close ties between Australia and the USA. The fleet may be in Port Phillip at the time of the Melbourne Osaka Cup start, so you never know who or what vessel may turn up to be the start boat. Also in 2025, the eyes of the world will be on Osaka as Melbourne’s sister city hosts World Expo 2025. The Expo 2025 site will be on Yumashima Island in Osaka Bay adjacent to the Osaka Hokko Yacht Club and the finish line will be nearby,
The Melbourne Osaka Double Handed Yacht Race Ltd, is the Organising Authority for the event, with the co-operation of the:
Ocean Racing Club of Victoria – on-water race management
Sandringham Yacht Club – host Club in Melbourne
Osaka Hokko Yacht Club – host Club in Osaka.
For the virtual M2O Prelude, Sailonline will be using the polar of a Beneteau First 40 yacht, a popular design sailed in waters all over the world. This virtual design has been chosen as it is representative of the majority of the yachts entered so far.
The Sailonline race opens for registration and practice on Saturday, 13 April 2024 at 0000 UTC (1000 AEST) to enable everyone, especially newcomers, to learn the ropes in time for the start.Gladstone Ports Corporation Brisbane to Gladstone Yacht Race 2024 - RESULTS

CONGRATULAZIONI ita10267 !!
CONGRATULAZIONI Sax747 !
Online, where and when to gybe and not necessarily at or near the several turning marks, was the secret to success, which Poland's WRmirekd mastered best, but it wasn't all plain sailing as second-placed ita10267, who, if he hadn't exited Brisbane so conservatively as he slept, might just have pipped him, as you can glean from his report under the button above. Great racing, guys!

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024
Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

The Beagle in the Straits of Magellan 2024
Both before and after visiting the Falkland Islands, the Beagle extensively explored the south eastern coast of South America, hither and thither, from north of the Rio Plate to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, but it was not till the end of June 1834 that the ship made it into the Pacific Ocean, transiting via the Straits of Magellan. Online in 2024, the choice is yours - passage the strait or round the cape; 400nm or more in your Class B Tall Ship.

Cape Town to Auckland 2024
Welcome to the second leg of this Round The World series 2024. It's also the April edition of this year's ocean race championship. The course is the same as the one sailed in 2023, but this year we sail the iconic Swan 65, as suggested in the concluding RTW race last year.
Prepare yourselves for an epic 30-day journey, navigating through the unpredictable waters of the South Seas. It's essential to take care of provisioning to ensure a smooth and enjoyable race experience. With the longer duration, we anticipate plenty of opportunities for camaraderie, competition, and unforgettable memories.
