2020 Q4 SRC Review

It is not big news to note that Coronavirus19 has caused a second spike in the Western world but now that we, in the North, are out of the sailing season there has been little demand for replacement virtual races or at least they have been accommodated in our existing calendar with one big exception. That exception comes from the Royal Cape Yacht Club selecting SOL for two virtual Cape Town to Rio races in 2021 and 2022 and then being the virtual partner for the real race in 2023. The whole SOL team is delighted in being invited to host these virtual races with the first virtual start occurring at 1200 UTC on 2nd January 2021.

Reverting now to the more mundane, in summarising the results for the Series racing in the 4th Quarter 2020, they are as follows.

Ocean Series
The three races for this Series were the last leg of the SOL Round the World race from Uruguay to near Lisbon in our 125’ Catamaran, joining the Gray Whales for their migration North to South and then sailing the Christmas Island to Christmas Island race in our OD65 v3 that may need to be replaced with a bit faster yacht next year.

    Kamchatsky to Tromsoe 2024

    Just before the light failed entirely in Antarctica, Skip Novak managed to get his Pelagic 77 out of the ice and north up the Pacific to Kamchatsky. The sun is shining (24/7) and not a penguin to be seen, and Skip believes the Norh East Passage is ice-free (sufficiently) to attempt it, so all aboard for a c 4250nm voyage from east to west across the top of Siberia, Russia and Norway to Tromsoe!

    Lake Ontario 300 Challenge 2024

    Lake Ontario Offshore Racing (LOOR) welcomes Sailonline to a second race of their annual series, this time as hosts of the virtual LO300.

Once again, as is our wont on Lake Ontario, a fleet of Beneteau First 36.7s is being made available to virtual racers.
