Commentary

The Auckland to Russell Timed Race is based upon the PIC Coastal Classic that is buddied with our real-life NZ Multihull Yacht Club competitors; hence, it presents many of the same challenges as those races i.e. not BBQing, how far away to keep from the coast etc. But it also includes an additional challenge, in that you choose your start time and hence what winds you get to use! Ideally, this would have been 30+ knot winds from the Southeast, but alas, such winds failed to materialise in the entire 16 day window. In fact, much of the time was dominated by "dying breezes" and much of the remaining time had strong winds coming from the north, neither of which were conducive for setting a winning run.
That isn't to say, however, that it was completely devoid of favourable winds. There were two windows, both equally favourable, in which runs under 7.5 hours were set. The first of these had start times around 6am UTC on 10 March, which saw a provisional podium of FreyjaUSA/sassy63/calmxy. The second of these had start times around midnight UTC on 11 March, where none of the provisional podium sitters made an attempt here. Rafa and Kipper1258 improved on their times and WRmirekd, who didn't use the first window, set the fastest time, leading to the podium sitters changing to WRmirekd/FreyjaUSA/rafa. Well done!

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)!
