RC attached you will find the article in Naviga written by "goblin". Unfortunately in Turkish. I'll translate it and post it here. Basically it is strongly recommending that sailors become members and race at sol.. mentions and invite Turkish sailors to join Sail around Turkey.

Hi TUR_AC - brilliant!!! thank you for posting that (and for subsequently offering to translate it)! Deffo looks like a positive piece :-)

Dear RC, here is the quick translation of the article about sol in Naviga.

TUR_AC- that is FAB!!! thank you so much!!! :-D
Hi,

I am very new here... I heard about this "Sail around Turkey" race via Naviga Magazin...

I want to join or register this race, but I can not find it in Race list or Race archive...

How can I find it ?

Cheers,
Haiku

Race is not up yet for registration .
It wil appear on the right hand side once open for registration which wil be later on.
For the moment just register in one of the open races and have a practive run.
enjoy:)
Haiku - welcome to SOL! Tempest is right - the race is not going to be run until 28 August, so will open for registration a few days before then. If you look at Current Race Calender here you can see that the Sail Round Turkey is there!!

In the meantime,please do join in other races - it will help you to learn how SOL works :-)

Feel free to ask questions in RaceChat - there is usually someone around and everyone is friendly and happy to help!

:-)
Can it go up as Registration will open soon RC or is there not enough room?
76T - I am now back from dog-walk and while there are several races ahead of the Sail Around Turkey I do think it would be good to show it "pending" so... great minds think alike eh??

:-)

P.S. forget the second half of that saying!!
Yet another Turkish magazine "TurkSail" published an article on "Sail around Turkey" and SOL...unfortunately in Turkish:( mentions highly of SOL:)

Valparaiso to San Francisco 2025

Get ready for an exhilarating new challenge as we set sail on the fourth leg of the 2025 Ocean Championship Series! Following in the 19th century footsteps of Isabel Allende's heroine, Eliza Sommers, 'Daughter of Fortune', this all-new route takes us across the vast eastern Pacific, from Valparaíso, Chile, to San Francisco, California - a 3500nm journey of endurance, strategy, and pure sailing adrenaline. This leg will be raced aboard the powerful Rapido 60, pushing sailors to their limits as they navigate the open ocean. Do you have what it takes to conquer the Pacific? Join us and put your skills to the ultimate test!

Red Eye - Round White Island 2025

We remain in New Zealand for our second “Red Eye Special” and another IRL Kiwi classic - the Round White Island! IRL still “currently on hiatus” following the island’s eruption of 2019, this race was last raced on SOL in 2020. It’s about 300nm there - out the Hauraki Gulf and south down to the island in the Bay of Plenty - and back to Auckland. This year we’ll be racing in our ever-popular take on the TP-52. Hau tika!

Africa by Sea - Tangier to Abidjan


Whatever about pharaoh Necho II’s Phoenician expedition of the 7th C BCE, the Carthaginian Hanno the Navigator with more certainty sailed south from Tangier to explore the West African coast two centuries later, but how far he got is a matter of more conjecture. However, if he did the 2300nm to today’s Ivory Coast he would have found little there other than good shelter in the vast lagoons behind the dunes, much the same as today, excepting the highly industrialized port of Abidjan. Not a great haven for a stop-over but let’s take the 90ft Monohull anyway.

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
