Sailonline is pleased to announce that it is partnering with Sail Newport to bring “The Inaugural Quahog Cup” to armchair sailors around the world.

Sail Newport, Inc., founded in 1983, is a non-profit 501 (C) (3) organization. Sail Newport is home to New England’s largest public sailing center and is considered Rhode Island’s premier public sailing site and its mission is to promote and operate affordable public sailing instruction, rental programs and to create opportunities to attract new sailors to the sport

Award winning instructional programs, fleets of rental boats and a prime one-design sailing facility equipped with hoists are just some of our features. The Dr. Robin Wallace Youth Sailing Center is the headquarters of Sail Newport’s Youth Sailing Program serving hundreds of children each season. Dinghy docks, ramp-launching, summer and winter storage, on-shore facilities and ample free parking round out Sail Newport’s assets to recreational sailors. Located at picturesque Fort Adams State Park in Newport, Sail Newport offers easy and affordable access to sailing.

Sailonline will be using the polar of a Farr 30 racing yacht as the online virtual yacht in this race, the first in a series of three called the Sail Newport / Sailonline Series 2020. The course is a challenging one on the waters of Narragansett Bay, home to many famous yachting events, racing yachts and sailors. Who knows, we might unearth a talented young sailor who goes on to greater things in the future.

Whether you are a seasoned old salt or a newbie, all are welcome and there is always someone willing to help with questions in the online race chat. Sailonline’s race is already open for pre-race practice.

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!

It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981
