The THIRD short, informal, practice race will be held on Thursday, 24 October 2013.

This will be a special practice race.
There are 5 marks spread around the course. Each combination of two marks (called a "leg" from now on) is associated with a certain amount of points. Participants shall cut trough marks (at maximum zoom) in an order of their own choosing. For each two subsequent mark-cuts (legs) a participant does, he/she receives the points associated with that particular leg.

If a participant sails a leg for the second time, in the same direction, no points will we given for the second time.

Participants should clearly communicate via the chat when they have completed a leg, for example "I completed leg M1-M3". (Exact channel shall be announced within 5 minutes before the start in both English and Sailtalk channel)

RACE START:
The race starts 18:00:00 utc, marks cut before 18:00:00 utc do not count. Participants may touch the mark at, and before 18:00:00. Participants may choose any mark to start.

RACE FINISH:
Towback for the real race is at 20:00 utc, the practice race will stop when all participants are placed back at SOL start. Any marks cut while being towed to SOL start don't count.

ADDITIONAL NOTE:
Practice Mark 5 will move into the wind with a speed of 0.69 knots starting from 18:00 utc.

RANKING:
- The participants will be ranked on their number of points in descending order (the more points the better)
- If two participants have the same number of points, the one that completed his last leg first will be ranked higher than the other. If it is unclear who was first, both participants receive the same ranking.
- All participants will be ranked
- No G-SCOW is awarded, as this is not a normal practice race.

USEFUL NOTE:
The amount of points per leg is roughly equal the the number of minutes it should take to complete.

Little mathematical note: It is impossible to connect 5 points with lines, without crossing the lines at some point. Try it :)

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

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!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.

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.
