AHOY THERE YE BESPAWLIN’ GROG-SNARFIN’ MONGRELS!!!


On 13 September at 1000utc Sailonline will be racing to bring barrels of rum from Carib distilleries to Mexico and as has become tradition, all SYC Members are invited to adopt a pirate name for this race only.

This is an annual affair, run in close proximity to International Talk Like a Pirate Day (Sept 19).

If you are a paid-up SYC Member you may change your usual Sailonline boatname just within this one race to one influenced by all things piratical! Names are agreed on a first-come, first-served basis BUT all must be suitable and "fit to print", Sailonline is a family-friendly site so we reserve the right to disallow names we consider inappropriate.

All requests for such changes will only be actioned if posted in this thread - hollering in chat is fun, but only by posting here can you guarantee your pirate name!

PLEASE DO CHECK THE LIST BELOW below before submitting a request so that you don't ask for a name already taken by someone else before you!

Please note that the change of boatname for this one race will not affect either your usual login credentials (username and password) or your SYC rankings.

Once the race opens, I will be changing the boatnames as efficiently as possible!

NOTE: you may join SYC and request a change of name for the race at any time up to and during the Carib Rum Run until race close!

I am going to retain the well respected name "Rod". I am, after all, the most fearsome, the most feared, the deadliest pirate of them all------and on top of that, I speak to the Queen in the Queen's English, as grammatically correct and as well typed as I can make it.....
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.
LOL Rod :-)

I shall resume my moniker of GetAPatch as in previous renditions of this quite essential expedition when Rum will be needed in weather ravaged areas of the Spanish Main.
"Go pose in front o' the mirror some more ye duck-knee'd dung munchin' crap sack!"

arr GetAPatch ye shall be

Not a request. Slimey Gobspittle.
Spell it right frilly drawers or I’ll tie your guts for gaskets with a slippery hitch.
Slimey, master pirate of the Southern Seas. Not a sun tanned pretender or a namby-pamby, pond-paddling, northern hemisphere would-be, who shakes at the sight of a proper ocean.

Hawk - spit - fart – aaaaaaaah.

yer monicker be set, ye impertinent clay-brained pignut

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
