IMPORTANT COURSE NOTICE

This weekend we will set of for the next leg in the series from Sanya to Auckland.

IMPORTANT: the course has been changed during practice, we now have included a additional mark north of the Philippines.
We realize this has a big impact on the practice rankings atm, but we feel its important to make the change as soon as possible to allow people to prepare for the race itself. If there was a quick way to set the mark as rounded for all boats we would have done so. When you have Cape Engano on your route you have the latest course already loaded.

Leg 4 will set off on the 19th of Februari at 07:00 UTC, the registration for this leg will close roughly a week before the start of leg 5. Registration will open for that part on the same day.

We have set up a forum section for additional info and links, you can find this here: Sailonline World Race topic

The Vineyard Race 2024

For the 15th consecutive year, Long Island's Stamford Yacht Club warmly invites all SOLers to join the real fleet in their iconic annual overnighter. This thrilling 250nm race will take competitors from the club line out through the sound to Buzzard's Bay Light near Martha's Vineyard Island and back, with Block Island to starboard. This year marks the club's 90th running of the Vineyard Race, and our SOLers will be competing in their Melges 40s, promising a memorable and historic race experience!

Round Greenland 2024

Just as Skip Novak was embarking for Kamchatsky, Amyr Klink also quietly slipped his Antarctica moorings and by now Paratii 2 has reached Reykjavik, where he invites you to join him on Leg 5 of our High Latitudes Series, a full 3650nm circumnavigation of Greenland. The course is clockwise round, so down the North Atlantic to Cape Farewell, then up the Davis Strait into Baffin Bay and on into the Arctic Ocean proper, where, hopefully and certainly virtually, Paratii 2’s special ice-breaker features will get us thorough the summer ice out onto the Greenland Sea and back to Reykjavik. Stay warm!

Lorient to Galway 2024

We invite you to the next ARCH race. This time we are racing on the 490nm route from Lorient to Galway. Don't let the simple route fool you; after all, we are sailing through the Celtic Sea, which likes to give surprises. The famous Fastnet race is also held in these waters. Prepare your Cape 31 well, so we can try the famous oysters from Galway Bay and enjoy excellent Irish beer at the finish line.

Pico Island TIMED Race 2024

900nm due West of Lisbon you’ll find Portugal’s Azores Islands where SOLers have been known to come and go, both IRL and on-line. Marking the junction of two major tectonic fault lines – the North Atlantic Ridge and the zone where the African and Eurasian plates meet – it is a seismically hyper-active place, but warm and verdantly beautiful with one rain-laden depression after another rolling over its ash-fed hillsides. If it wasn’t for the pods of whales mooching about offshore, at sea might be the safer place to be, but let’s go racing anyway – 53nm round Pico, this year in Mini 6.50’s. This is a TIMED race, so you may RE-REGISTER HERE to try again, after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.

SOL's Balloon Transat 2024

Sailonline offers a huge variety of boats to sail in. One of the more unusual ones has got to be SOL's Balloon, which was polarized by past SOLmaster 76Trombones. Notably, the SOL Balloon will actually ‘sail’ in other directions other than straight downwind, although it will not 'sail' over land or beyond a 'beam reach'. This year we have a new course to challenge all you aeronaut’s and we will be taking the Balloon across the Southern Atlantic from Cape Horn to 'land' it in the Cape of Good Hope. Tips: Wait for favourable winds before launching and set DC aware predictor to maximal length.

San Francisco to Ushuaia 2024

After a superlong RTW-leg3 (27 days), we have had a month to recover, and maintain our boat, in order to continue our around the world race. Leg 4, even longer than the previous, takes us from California to the world's southernmost city Ushuaia. No waypoints, even "the Ditch" is an option, but maybe a bit too much of a treat. With 6300 nm to go, the estimated duration of this race 29 days. This course is also the August edition of our ocean race championship.
