Post annotated by RainbowChaser :
This post was moved from the thread Here is how to propose new races.
Hello,
find here my race proposal for mid-August.
In Mediterranean Sea will run a magnificent race in real life (Tracking avalaible on yellowbrick).
Start the magnificent pink beach of Mondello, arrival in the luxury of Monte Carlo with its skyscrapers.
I had planned to run it, but ......
Let run at least in virtual!

Palermo- Montecarlo Regatta IX Edition



thanks

Ciao Matoto - as you say you were going to race this in reality, would you please check through the official papers/information and see if there is any mention of a virtual version of this race. The reason I ask is that many of the prestigious races around the world are now "in bed with" one of the larger point-and-click sailing games and, if this is the case, Sailonline has to respect that position and adjust what it does accordingaly :-)

Grazie!

Of course, if there is no mention of it, would you feel comfortable asking the organisers if we, Sailonline, might have permission, in exchange for publicising their race for free, to use the official race name and sail a virtual race at the same time?

That would be perfetto!

Your proposal is very clear - thank you!

UPDATE: Matoto is in contact with the IRL organisers so... cross fingers (and paws) that we get approval to at least sail the course at the same time, even if we don't get permission to use the real name!

:-)
Hello SOLers, it would be nice to do this race in SOL ... : http://maserati.soldini.it/maserati-salpa-domani-per-la-transpac/?lang=en

FW all, see you.

Carlo Alberto
Matoto - any information on this? It is in the SOL calendar but we need to choose a boat-type.

If the IRL organisers have not responded, that's fine.. we can call the race something completely different but we do need to know please!

Thanks.
FANTASTICO!!!!

Here is the (Italian original) reply Matoto received earlier today:

"
"Mi scuso per il ritardo, la mail del sito come spesso accade non è gestita direttamente da me ed è stata letta in ritardo.
Vi diamo l'autorizzazione a utilizzare il marchio e il nome della regata per realizzare la simulazione sul vostro sito.
Vi chiediamo in cambio di volerci aggiornare costantemente sugli sviluppi, inviandoci una comunicazione di quando e come funzionerà sul vostro sito la nostra regata, in modo da poterne dare conto anche nella cartella stampa e sul sito della regata stessa.
Una presentazione del vostro sito è altresì utile e richiesta.
Vi prego di utilizzare questo indirizzo mail (media@palermo-montecarlo.it) per le prossime comunicazioni.

Un saluto e buon vento!

.... via google translate "its a go"!!! hehehe
RC,

Bravo Matoto!

You'll find the NOR in the site of the race, at the link

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 3

Leg Three of our Round North Island Series, in partnership with SSANZ, keeps the pressure on! From Cook Strait, the fleet turns north for a 187 nautical mile passage up the east coast to Napier. It may look like a quick overnighter, but shifting coastal winds and the ever-lively Cook Strait demand sharp focus. In our responsive Sun Fast 3600s, a proven short-handed racer and powerful downwind performer, tactical decisions and precise timing will make all the difference!

The start time for this race may change at short notice to align with the real race. The confirmed start date and time will be announced via an in-race “L” flag message — Please monitor race communications closely.

South China Sea Race 2026


Welcome all to the South China Sea and a virtual chase in Cookson 50’s of the Rolex South China Sea fleet, racing 650nm – as the local red-footed booby flies – from Hong Kong to Subic Bay on the southern tip of The Philippines’ Luzon Island. Chances are it will be a fast downwind ride, so see how you can keep up with the real-life fleet which we hope to be able to follow on our monitors.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 2

Leg Two of our Round North Island Series is where the real challenge begins. After Mangonui, our SOLers face a demanding 491nm passage around the top of the North Island and down the rugged west coast toward Cook Strait. Long miles, exposed waters, and relentless tactical choices will test every SOLer. In our powerful Sun Fast 3600s, a proven short-handed performer and true downwind flyer, endurance, timing, and smart routing will be key to success!

The start time for this race may change at short notice to align with the real race. The confirmed start date and time will be announced via an in-race “L” flag message — Please monitor race communications closely.

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. To give each leg of the ROW a bit of length we'll try to hug the coasts as little as possible, so starting in Iceland our first leg of the series, which will also be the final leg of our Quarter 1 Ocean Championships takes us 7200nm to the Falklands, the full length of the Atlantic end to end. To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 1

Welcome to Leg One of the Round North Island Series in partnership with SSANZ. The four-leg circuit of New Zealand’s North Island is a true test of short-handed skill, and it begins with the 150nm passage from Auckland to Mangonui. This year, our SOLers will be racing the dynamic Sun Fast 3600 – Jeanneau’s renowned racer-cruiser and a proven flyer downwind. A gentle opener on paper… but coastal tactics and shifting breezes will demand focus from the start!

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!
