I have a question about the Antwerpen - Belfast race: When does the starting line close?

It would be nice to have this information in the race description for timed races, so we can estimate whether we have many tries or just a few and make smarter guesses for a good weather window.

Thanks,
Eddie - brainaid

The sea is lovely, dark, and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to sail before I sleep, And miles to sail before I sleep.
Good point Eddie I think we will close this one before the start of leg 5 so feb 14th at least, maybee sooner.

I think Jakob can inform you on that one, if its decided its indeed good to put the info in the description.

What do I need to do to have more than one try at a timed race.
I thought I was only allowed one entry per race

This is true for normal races.

During timed races you only may have one active boat at a time.
As soon as this boat gets across the finish you can re-enter the race and make another attempt.

The one boat rule is there to avoid gambling one more then one strategy at the same time.

Happy racing, jeroen

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
