I pledge to sail SOTP for these races. Not a big commitment as it is how I always sail.
Hopefully all entrants will sail SOTP so that we won't be able to check our individual dead reckoning against those that use routers and other aids.

I do solemnly declare that in GGR 2018 I'll sail the SOTP, the whole SOTP, and nothing but the SOTP.

...so G, help me!

I do hereby state that for the Feeder race and the two races of the Golden Globe Race 2018 I shall most certainly not use a router (I only occasionally do), so be prepared to see my name of Goddess of Windholes reinstated as my unerring ability to find "blue goo" and remain in it will undoubtedly return!

Natuna Sea Race 2026


At 4.0N 108.2E lies the island of Natuna Besar, Great Natuna, surrounded by at least 154 islands, of which 127 uninhabited, Indonesia’s Natuna Regency, and all around this archipelago, the Natuna Sea, bordered by Borneo to the east, the Java Sea to the south, and the Malay peninsula to the west, and extending north to cross a disputed international border with China into the South China Sea. And it’s a border that matters, there’s gas here! But why worry, let’s race – 2050nm in our goo’ol’ Open 60s in between the production platforms, prowling destroyers and submarines.

Panama Canal 2026


Sailing in the Panama Canal isn't the best idea, and organizing a race there is simply impossible and unfeasible IRL. In SOL, we have slightly different rules, so why not? A 36nm, frantic race awaits us, and the fast Dehler 30 OD will help us navigate the Panama Canal with grace.

Tasman Double 2025 - Hobart to Sydney

With Hobart astern and celebrations behind them, the fleet turns north for Leg 2 of our Tasman Double Series. Over 625 nautical miles, our SOLers aboard their mighty Super Maxi 100v2s return to the Tasman Sea, where shifting weather, demanding seas, and nonstop decisions shape every mile. The race back to Sydney rewards those who read the conditions best, manage their speed wisely, and stay focused until the final approach.
