Board » Sailonline Yacht Club » HOW TO IDENTIFY A CHAMPIONSHP RACE

Hallo Solers ;)

At times I receive emails from Solers , asking if the race they just finished in top ten ranking qualifies for a prize , i.e. if it belongs to any of the Championships .

This signifies PASSION , but also demostrates that the rankings codes have not been explained well enough . So : let me clarify :

There are two areas wher you find the information : one is in Forum , under Calendar Q2 ( for this quarter ) . In second page you have the listing of races and ranking codes each race triggers . Underneath you have the legenda .

Furtehrmore , in Home page , under each race description , you can read " Rankings " , followed by codes . The codes for the 4 Championships are :

OCCH - Ocean Championship
TRCH - Timed Races Championship
SPRCH - Sprint Races Championship
SYCCH - SYC Championship

Alongside you will find also other codes meaning which series the race ALSO belongs to .

One good example : The 4th leg of the Round the world From Auckland to Punta del Este , that will open in a few days , will show :

OCCH - Ocean Championship
SRTW - Sailonline Round the World series
SYC - Our Club revolving continous ranking.

Hope all more clear now ..;)

Do not hesitate to ask if in doubt !! ;)

ciaooooooooooooo

Piero
;))

PS : on the very opposite side , there is a number of Solers who failed to collect their prizes from January onward . This is due to the fact that they do not read the instructions ( LOL ) , and their email logged with SOL is somehow obsolete , and they do not receive my reminder ( I am chasing each and every one !! ) LOL .

Please check the list I regularily update in this same Forum section , and if you happen to talk to them ....well ...TELL THEM !!!! ;) ;) ;)

again ...ciaooooooooooo !! ;)

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
