    Seems to be a need for sails to be added for reaching and running.Have found in the last leg that I have been able to get a higher boat speed in less wind when tight reaching than broad reaching in significantly higher wind strengths????
    A note I made for my self shows,7.8knts boat speed in 9.1 knots wind speed at twa 90 around 14hours ago.
    Currently in over 20 knts wind and doing only 7.1 boat speed at 120 twa?
    DoI need to buy sails?Can't afford carbon or kevlar:)

    Well you covered so much I gave up reading and skimmed to the end.
    The sentiment however,I agree with completely.
    By the way...its only a game so don't let it ruin your life.
    There will always be some arsehole that wants to throw around there imagined self importance...give them the correct response...ignore them and get on with the fun.

Carib Rum Run 2026


Ahoy, ye landlubbers and seasoned salts! Welcome back to Sailonline’s legendary Carib Rum Run, perfectly timed to kick off on International Talk Like a Pirate Day, 19 September!

This year, we command the magnificent Falkun—the ultimate high-tech superyacht modeled after the iconic Maltese Falcon. This 1759nm slalom takes us through the Caribbean’s rum islands to plunder barrels from local distilleries and deliver them to the rum-parched sands of Cancun.

Join SYC before the finish to disguise yer boat with a pirate name for this race only. Hoist the sails, sharpen yer cutlasses, and plot your winning course!
