    Forum technical but not sailing related.

    I am seeing an increasing of activity in the Forum with SPAM post in every section , let me call them "facebook style": e.G.
    - I found a nice weather site for my town....
    - I was there once and was nice....
    -Air traffic management is a complex system....
    Any chance to block them?
    Cheers,
    Gilles
    (please SOL TEAM, keep doing your excellent work!)

    An increadible entushiastic person.
    With too much energy to be kept inside.
    He was sparkling all around at every moment.
    May he bring good wind to all friends and family still sailing thinking at him.

    The sad news have spread amongst the members of the SOL Italian Team. They have expressed the desire that I add their grief to mine here.

    So …..On behalf of all those who fly the Italian flag high on the mast of the SOL pinky boats …. A BIG HUG to Joao …..

    You have always expressed friendship and respect for us …….it is now our time to pay total respect to you ….Thank you Joao !! …..

    The “Padrão dos Descobrimentos” will steer with you on every sea and ocean !

    Italians pay respect to Portuguese navigators (33 + 1)

    Ciao

    Re: First SOL meetup in north Europe
    Board » Sailonline Yacht Club
    was not a surprise that the most answer I got were "no boat?, no party!"
    Accidentally the 2 options that I have to grab a boat has sinked in the last weeks....
    So I have to postpone this on a next future.
    Could be that I will go there anyhow as there is holiday in Germany.

    However the plan B is the following:
    I will attend to the presentation of SOL during the buddyup with the Silverrudder, same location, end of September.
    The local SOL crew is already up and running for that.
    So stay tuned, there WILL BE a SOL party in DK this year! ;)
    Good wind

Lake Vättern PYOC 2026


Back in 2013, longstanding SOLer Musigny and his friend xthyra invited us for a three race tour of beautiful Lake Vättern in the heart of southern Sweden. After many years, we return there for a quick sprint from a start in front of the village of Brandstorp, either way around Visingso island in the middle of the lake, but PORT HAND ROUND a buoy off the Granna piers on the eastern shore and back, once again avoiding Visingso as best you can. At least 20nm in trusty Scandinavian 11m One Designs; good luck!

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!
