Online Pacific Cup Race 2020

Sailonline is excited to be partnering with the Pacific Cup Yacht Club for the biennial running of the famous ”Fun Race to Hawaii”. This year’s race is very different as due to Covid-19, the race takes place entirely in virtual reality on Sailonline.

The Pacific Cup Yacht Club was formed to run the Pacific Cup race from San Francisco Bay to Hawaii. Originally a loose organization operating out of Ballena Bay Yacht Club, the club incorporated in the 1980s to take firmer control of the race and its finances.

With over a dozen boats now entered in the 2022 Pacific Cup, the online event is a very good opportunity for skippers, navigators and crew to practice their ability to ‘read the weather’.

Participants in the online Pacific Cup will be sailing a virtual Santa Cruz 52. The Santa Cruz 52 was designed and built for offshore racing and fast cruising with excellent performance for competitive racing in races just like the Pacific Cup.


Santa Cruz 52 “City Lights”

Also, a great incentive for all online competitors are the prizes being offered by the Pacific Cup Yacht Club – of race caps to the three podiums in two divisions (1) All who start, and (2) Those who would have participated in the real race.

Sailonline's virtual Pacific Cup Race will open for pre-race practice on Saturday, 27 June at 1900utc. The race starts at the same time as the ‘real race’ would have on Thursday 2 July 2020 at 1900 UTC (1200 PDT).
