Sailonline is delighted to announce that it will again be buddying with Royal Akarana Yacht Club, one of Auckland's most prestigious yacht clubs, established in 1895 and known as the home of Blue Water Sailing in New Zealand, for the 2013 Round White Island Race which starts at 2100UTC on 21 November (the morning of 22 November in Auckland).

The Round White Island race is an iconic NZ offshore race and a firm favourite with SOLers as conditions can be variable and always challenging. White Island itself is not just an island but a volcano, estimated to be between 150,000 to 200,000 years old, and was named White Island by Captain Cook, because it appeared white in colour in the distance. These days visits to the island are strictly controlled to maintain its natural state so... try not to run aground there!

Many racers reported about the race, though none of them were actual complete reports. So I stitched together all "reports" I thought described some part of the race.
NOTE 1: Contributors to this report may not be aware of their contribution.
NOTE 2: If you want to read chronologically, start reading at the bottom.

Report from many racers (you probably need to zoom in a bit to be able the read it)

If anyone isn't happy with their contribution I can remove it.

Rapallo to Nador 2026


Welcome to Liguria’s Rapallo, there where Zarathustra spoke - at length - to Nietzsche, for our first race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil. A number of our races in this new Magical Mediterranean series will be partnership with famous real-life races, but this first race is pure fiction - 780nm in refurbed IMOCA 60s, past or through the Balearic Isles and on into the Alboran Sea, to a finish off Nador on the Maroc Mediterranean coast.

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Guam to Ouvéa


The third race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us southeastward now down the Pacific, from Guam’s Apra Harbour at 13.5 degrees North, back across the Equator to the glorious New Caledonian resort island of Ouvéa, on the edge of the Tropic of Capricorn at 20.5 degrees South. It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981
