Dommage, je me réjouissais de faire cette course.
Malheureusement, il y a trop de balises. Elles sont si serrées qu'elles sont infranchissables si on n'est pas devant l'ordinateur.
Actuellement, je travail le sans connexion internet. Je ne peux pas faire de réglage de 6h20 à 19h30 environ. Impossible de faire cette course sérieusement, je ferai donc un parcours d'entrainement, sans m'occupé de ces petite balises proche de la côte.
Dommage - cette course commence vendredi soir.. quand la plupart des gens ont des heures libres.... c'est vraiment impossible pour vous?

[A pity - this race begins Friday evening... when most people have free time... is it really impossible for you?]

Moi, j'ai besoin de sommeil en raison d'une maladie donc c'est presque toujours impossible a faire les courses comme je voudrais.

[As for me, I have need of sleep because of illness so it is nearly always impossible to race as I would like/]

Dans qqs jours commence une course cree par un des SOLers francais parmi les iles de l'Atlantique... peut-etre elle sera meilleure pour vous?

[In a few days a race created by a French SOLer will begin, a race among the islands of the Atlantic... perhaps this will be better for you?]

I will work Saturday, but I am free Sunday and Monday.
May be, it will be good.
But, the same race without the small way-point would be a perfect race.

Please, for everybody who draw a race. Put less WP, then we can chose our line.

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!

Thessaloniki to Port Said 2026

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series. Only marginally less unlikely to be ever raced in real life during SOL’s lifetime than our previous race from Tobruk to Iskenderun, this 710nm race takes us from Greece’s ancient northern port of Thessaloniki through the Aegean island maze, south east into the Levantine Sea to a finish in modern Port Said, in splendid Swan 65s!

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
