We're just a few days away from Sailonline's annual Caribbean Pirate Fest, a special occasion where SYC members have the chance to temporarily change their boat names to something inspired by pirates, just for this race. It's also the time to fill our General chat column with some good-natured pirate-speak (ahoy there, matey!). This marks the 13th year of this enjoyable event, and we're extending an invitation to all, even if you're not yet a member of SYC. However, it's worth considering that Sailonline relies on SYC memberships as its sole source of income, so now might be the perfect moment to join!

Our mission for this race is to sail around the Caribbean, making stops at various distilleries to pick up barrels of rum, and supposedly delivering them to Cancun, Mexico. This year, we have the impressive multi-masted superyacht, Falkun, as our vessel of choice for this exciting adventure!

JOIN THE SYC AND RACE WITH A PIRATE NAME:
SYC Members only may request that their SOL boatname is changed to something piratical for this race! All info is here. Such a boatname change for this one race will not change your login credentials or affect your SYC rankings. You may join SYC at any time before race finish and have your name changed!

Tobruk to Iskenderun 2026

Welcome to the fourth of our nine races across the length and breadth of the Magical Mediterranean Sea, and the second that is not in partnership with a real-life event, this time for good reason, which we won’t get into here. From Tobruk to Iskenderun it’s 670nm in length, with the added complication that the island of Cyprus will be in your way. Hoping, possibly forlornly, for plenty of downwind sailing, we’ll take the Lagoon 55 for the voyage!

Tasmania to Kamchatka 2026

Welcome to yet another all-new route. Tasmania to Kamchatka, part of our Ocean Championship and also the third leg of the ROW (Round the Old World) series. Be aware of the obstacles on the way, likely to split the fleet. It's like X:mas to X:mas, crossing the same waters, navigating the same archipelagos. This second race of OCQ2 2026 will be sailed in our revised 'version 2' Imoca 60 Foil. Race #2031
