Commentary

Leg 2 of the ESRW aka RWWW aka NAAH then, from Sao Vicente on the Cape Verdes to Colon at the mouth of the Panama Canal, although barely shorter at c 3300nm than Leg 1's c 3500nm from Haifa to Sao Vicente, took the first RP65s home a mere 11 days versus the best 17 day passages set for Leg 1. Nothing like fair winds and a fast boat, and thus whilst departing 4 days after a separate SOL fleet of Xp55s had left the Canaries for the Caribbean, our RP65s managed to overtake our Xp55s before reaching the Windward Isles. 10 feet and 5 tonne makes a big difference!

Undoubtedly, having two virtual identities in roughly the same place on two charts enjoying roughly the same weather (not quite – the res for ESRW2 was a rougher 1.5 x 1.5 degrees than the 1 x 1 for the race from Lanzarote) at the same time led to a bit of DC-setting confusion for some, but not the podium of course, led home by WRmirekd, who is rather in the form of his life, as indeed is aner59 who added his P3 here to the P3 he recorded in the Lanzarote Grenada race the day before. Mind you, GREATSKUA also is currently going muy bien, with his P2 adding nicely to his recent victory racing round Indochina. What a podium!

Tall Ships Races 2025 - Le Havre to Dunkirk


Welcome to the first of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International . The course for this first race is between the French ports of Le Havre and Dunkirk; circa 125nm in Sailonline’s magnificent 90m Barque.
NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
