2024-06-11 09:28:21 - Another good Soler leaves us
Hi All.

My brother, Henry Snoek, passed away on Friday morning 7 June. Sailed under the boat name Henrys. He struggled with PKD and spent the last 5 years on Dialysis. Towards the end he had to withdraw from SOL as he had to deal with his physical challenges as the PKD got worse.
His last win was the Cape2Rio 2021. Picture attached of Henry with his prizes.
Henry was brought to SOL through my introduction and spent many an enjoyable hour during his retirement on this platform.

George.....

I have seen this post only now and I apologise for such delay.

I well remember Henry and I well remember that he had always my full respect for his consistent performance in SOL waters.

Very sorry for the news ......for SOL it is another important loss .....

Condolencies to your and his families.

My condolences George. Our SOL family shrinks by the day.
Cheers. Vince

Carib Rum Run 2026


Ahoy, ye landlubbers and seasoned salts! Welcome back to Sailonline’s legendary Carib Rum Run, perfectly timed to kick off on International Talk Like a Pirate Day, 19 September!

This year, we command the magnificent Falkun—the ultimate high-tech superyacht modeled after the iconic Maltese Falcon. This 1759nm slalom takes us through the Caribbean’s rum islands to plunder barrels from local distilleries and deliver them to the rum-parched sands of Cancun.
