2020 Q1 SRC Review

The 4th quarter of 2019 lured us into a false sense of security. The Coronavirus-19 pandemic has hit us all, but to varying degrees. Some countries have imposed and others have recommended self-isolation, closure of restaurants, pubs, hotels, cinemas, theatres etc. and non-essential businesses. In the vast majority of countries essential businesses continue, with some working at home if such is possible, but many workers are being asked to continue to venture out and provide essential medical services, manage shops, deliver goods around the country, police our streets, provide fire services, collect rubbish etc. and all of them are exposing themselves to the virus on our behalf. I am sure that I can speak for all SOLers by expressing our sincere gratitude to them for their dedication and send them our very best wishes that they all survive this challenge to emerge into the post-Coronavirus19 world.

Inevitably this pandemic has impacted real life sailing and there is hardly one yacht race that has not been cancelled as yet. This pandemic has not impacted on SOL and, thanks to the efforts of OPS, Admin, Marketing and my Race Committee… Report continues here

Roma per Tutti 2026

Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara

Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!
