Description:
The Bass Strait is a tough place to sail but that does not put off hardy folk from Australia and further to test their skills. The waves that build in the Southern Ocean pile up in the shallow waters and gales regularly sweep past, providing a test of the best prepared boat. Flinders Island is located in the eastern part of Bass Strait and the course will provide an excellent test of judging weather and navigation.
Boat: V70_v4
106nm

2014-02-08 21:20:08 - Gibralter
Description:
The entrance to the Mediterranean Sea is a gateway, not just in geography but also in history. There are many legends of the area from the likes of the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Goths, Vandals, and Moors. It is even the last known holdout of the Neanderthals. Our tour starts in the Atlantic and voyages between Africa and Europe and through to the Med. Dare you pass through the gates?
Boat: f18
56nm

Africa by Sea - Swakopmund to Maputo 2025


Time again to continue our exploration of Africa by Sea, which now takes us around the tip of the continent at Cape Agulhas and up the coast of South Africa to Mozambique’s marvellous Maputo, where we should find good anchorage in the bend of the Rio Espirito Santo (Umbuluzi) once we’ve cleared the 60m high Maputo - Katembe suspension bridge. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be glad to be sailing our comfortable and sturdy Xp-55, as we will certainly experience more headwinds!

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2025

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
