SRC is pleased to announce
THE 2023 SOL CHAMPIONSHIP NORs ;)
________________________________________
For 2023 we want to continue with some change, aimed to see some evolution in the years to come.

Two out of the main four Championships will not change format in 2023.

The ALL ROUND Championship, with its 4 quarters portraying four different groups of boat types and sizes has been successful in 2022 and will continue.

The Ocean Championship, as always the most appealing to the majority of SOLers, will carry no change.

After some debate we have reduced the number of Sprint races valid for the Championship to 12 (3 per quarter) but actually increased the number of sprint races for the sprint maniacs to 24 total , 12 of which non valid for the Championship. Twice a month it will be " hands on till time" for many, but careful to identify from the relevant codes which races are Sprint Championship and which are not ! ;)

Good news for many around the world ! :
each quarter of the Sprint Championship will see start times favourable to each of the three main areas of the world (Europe-Americas-FarEast) whilst last quarter will see one race with start time suitable for each of the three areas ( more details in calendar)

Timed races Championship goes back to 12 (one each month). This will offer more opportunity for many newcomers to test SOLing in the Timed arenas that will be available during more than 50% of the time in 2023.

In a nutshell :

OCEAN CHAMPIONSHIP
Annual Championship
12 races (one each month) - 2 discards
Quarterly Championships
the 3 races of each quarter - NO discards

TIMED CHAMPIONSHIP
Annual Championship
12 races (three each quarter) - 2 discards
Quarterly Championships
the 3 races of each quarter - NO discards

SPRINT CHAMPIONSHIP
Annual Championship
12 races (three each quarter) - 2 discards
Quarterly Championships
the 3 races of each quarter - NO discards

ALL ROUND CHAMPIONSHIP
Annual Championship
12 races (one each month) - 2 discards
Quarterly Championships
the 3 races of each quarter - NO discards


SUPERSOLER 2022
This year again it will be the summa of 48 Championship races (12 OCCH + 12 TRCH + 12 SPRCH + 12 ARCH) and will allow 6 discards.

Happy Championships SOLing in 2023 !
;)

Refeno Rally 2024


Although since 1986 this 300nm course from Recife, Brazil, to Fernando Noronha Island has been run many times IRL, we have only used this route twice in SOL. This time it will be the route of the last race in the ARCH 2024 classification.
Although the winner of the general classification can already be determined, the fight for the next places on the podium should be fierce. There are several contenders and Dofour34 have them at their disposal. Since we are starting in Vida_Maldita's home waters, he will give us a 30-minute handicap. Or maybe we should give it to him? 😊

Tristan da Cunha TIMED Race 2024

Originally designed by NZL_Scotsman, we head for the remote outpost of Tristan da Cunha where gales and storms may come and go but the sea is everlasting. This 64nm TIMED race has been raced on several occasions before, and this time we will be doing it in Rustler 36s.

The Beagle in the Azores 2024


And west the Beagle went one final time to round the Cape of Good Hope on May 31 1836. Ashore, Darwin met up with the Astronomer Royal, Herschel, who just happened to be in South Africa at the same time mapping the southern skies. After sounding out his many ideas on evolution and extinction with Herschel, the Beagle now sailed north, stopping briefly in St Helena, Ascension and Brazil, and the Cape Verdes again, to reach the Azores on September 19, 1836. Fitzroy and Darwin at this stage were in a hurry to get back to Britain, but online in 2024 we will stay a little longer to explore this final remote archipelago in our virtual Tall Ship Class B Beagle, 630nm round and about the islands, minding as always in these waters not to bump into any large cetaceans!

Christmas(W) to Christmas(E) Island 2024

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, so prepare your 90ft well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2024 challenge of a reversed race, starting in the Indian Ocean, racing to the Christmas Island in the Pacific! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2024. Please have fun! Fair winds!
