This Labor Day weekend (4-7 September) the Stamford Yacht Club, Connecticut, USA, will be welcoming Sailonline back for the 86th running of the 238-mile Vineyard Race. This will be the 11th consecutive year that Stamford Yacht Club and Sailonline have joined together to offer a virtual Vineyard Race! The course itself can be challenging, with conditions in Long Island Sound strongly influenced by weather systems rolling up the US East Coast and by the strong tidal currents up and down the Sound.

Sailonline will be racing our virtual J/122, a new addition to the boathouse and one associated with Sailonline top performer, bonknhoot. There are two J-122s racing in Class 11 – ‘Moxiee’ and ‘Summer Grace’. Lets see how the virtual fleet can go against them.

Sailonline’s race will open shortly for pre-race practice and will start with the real Vineyard fleet on the 4th September at 1705utc.

Stamford Yacht Club has also announced that that Vineyard Race 2020 baseball caps will once again be awarded to the three Sailonline podium placers. Iconic prizes worth racing for and a great memento of success in this classic race.

Sailonline’s 15th Birthday Balloon Race
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'. Like in 2013 and 2018, we will be taking the Balloon across the Atlantic from St. John's and 'land' it in the sea off the Cliffs of Moher.
