Was trying to post this last night:

RC was asking about router forecasts for the Rum Run. It's still over 4 days to the race so any router output would be suspect at best. Last year the race was won by PetrM in 7 days 5 hours and 25.7 min. Nearest to 24 hours behind him was DariusDr (#118) 8 days 5 hours 31.18 min. Closest to 30 hours behind PetrM was Echium (#145) in 8 days 11 hours 30.67 min. Last boat to finish was Renegade (#187) in 9 days 13 hours 21.48 min.

So it does look like moving up to the 10th should work. The only question now is how long is race 3 of the SYCC?
Ahoy, dreadful pirates ! Arrrr....

"Rackham the Pinkish" is me name for this Rum Run.

Sayya ! Ya'd betta use it to get me answer ! Aye !

the writers of Blackadder would have loved this :-D

AHOY THERE YE LILY LIVERED SWABS!

Sailonline will shortly be running its annual rum race through the Caribbean. Run in proximity to International Talk Like a Pirate Day (Sept 19) it has become a tradition for SYC Members to have the option of changing their normal SOL boat names just within this one race to one influenced by the pirate theme.

Race to Up Helly Aa 2026

A-OI!!! The fiery spirit of Shetland’s legendary Up Helly Aa returns, and Sailonline’s annual race to Lerwick is once again upon us. Covering 383 nautical miles from Aberdeen, SOLers will tackle winter waters steeped in Viking tradition. This year, we race the classic Frers 33, a proven cruiser-racer born from the golden era of offshore racing and still a sturdy performer both on the virtual and real water. Can you master the course and reach Lerwick in time for the flames?

SAILING NOTE: Gruney may be approached from any direction but must be passed for rounding purposes as indicated on the chart.

Red Eye - Hobart Convict Run 2026

Back in 2010, one of our SOLers of the first hour, AUS_Scott76, came up with this ‘Convict Run’ out from Hobart, past Cape Raoul and the penal colony of Port Arthur, round Tasman Island, up and back down the east coast of Tasmania, to finish with a tight technical run – so Scott called it – up the picturesque D'entrecasteaux Channel, home to Hobart once again. It’s 250nm, ideal for a bit of ‘Red Eye’ in comfortable Finngulf 43’s, and if the original idea was to pick up some convicts on the way for a bit of R&R and sea air, you may always drop’m back before returning to Hobart!

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
