Commentary

The sailing competition kicked off with an impressive turnout of 152 participants, with 109 boats setting sail right on schedule. As the event progressed, it became evident that this race would prove to be straightforward, and luck was on our side as we encountered favourable conditions in the doldrums. Within just 24 hours, the fleet experienced a split, with the majority of boats diligently following the rhumbline, while a brave breakaway group chose a more easterly route. Initially, the Eastern group lost some ground, but their persistence paid off, and by day 8, they began to close the gap with the leading pack. Their remarkable effort culminated in a breathtaking overtake on day 12, significantly reshuffling the leaderboard. From that point onwards, the podium positions were solidified, and the order remained unchanged until the conclusion of the race. A total of 112 boats managed to reach the finish line at the time of writing, marking a testament to the skill and determination displayed by the participants."

"This sailing competition showcased the strategic decisions and tactical manoeuvres made by the sailors, highlighting their adaptability to ever-changing conditions on the water. The event was a resounding success, providing an exhilarating experience for both participants and spectators alike. As the competition comes to a close, we celebrate the outstanding achievements of the winners and acknowledge the tenacity and dedication demonstrated by all sailors throughout this exhilarating journey. Until the next adventure on the open sea, fair winds and smooth sailing to all!

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
