Commentary
Sailonline has raced the well established Raja Muda Selangor Race in Malaysian waters twice before and the direct run between Port Klang and Pangkor has, on both previous occasions, been a pretty straightforward affair (although the real yachts tend to race ahead of us, with the benefit of local tides/currents) and this third time again saw kind winds opening a straightforward route from start to finish. The real event this year was, unfortunately, postponed due to #COVID19 restrictions imposed in the area, so we were without our usual tracked boats competition, which brought the focus very much back on-screen.

The 2020 fleet was a truly competitive one, representing 27 different nations, and the race was hotly contested. Despite the simplicity of the course, there is one headland, Selekoh (which translates as “corner”) that always catches out a few SOLers, particularly if they don’t use the Max Zoom functionality of the UI as carefully as they might, which means that there were several overnight BBQs resulting in some exploration of the local area, which appears to be mostly agricultural!

Our 2020 podium, from Poland, Australia and France are to be congratulated on their success – with only 19s separating the three podium place takers this was a close run thing, particularly as 15 other boats, arriving within 10m of the winner, were hot on their heels! Congratulations!

Natuna Sea Race 2026


At 4.0N 108.2E lies the island of Natuna Besar, Great Natuna, surrounded by at least 154 islands, of which 127 uninhabited, Indonesia’s Natuna Regency, and all around this archipelago, the Natuna Sea, bordered by Borneo to the east, the Java Sea to the south, and the Malay peninsula to the west, and extending north to cross a disputed international border with China into the South China Sea. And it’s a border that matters, there’s gas here! But why worry, let’s race – 2050nm in our goo’ol’ Open 60s in between the production platforms, prowling destroyers and submarines.

Panama Canal 2026


Sailing in the Panama Canal isn't the best idea, and organizing a race there is simply impossible and unfeasible IRL. In SOL, we have slightly different rules, so why not? A 36nm, frantic race awaits us, and the fast Dehler 30 OD will help us navigate the Panama Canal with grace.
