Need an ocean race in there somewhere. Best window looks like before the Mackinac. Or maybe run more legs of the Scandinavian Tour??
ShamPir - we certainly should have an ocean race... and we will be ScanTouring too.

Thanks!
So for in June we have had races that are hard to start on DC, or if you can they are too hard to sail on DC due to islands and so forth. This is also the same for the rest of this week, with the IMSYC race in the Med (always tricky) then Wednesday, leg 2 of Vancouver, which will be impossible to do, so I assume there will be no weekend race this week!! So it doesn't let the sailors that have to work or go to school much chance of being competitive.
Going by the races in the July calender, this is going to be the same!!
Any chance of having some open water races again!!!
mustang_sally - thanks for pointing that out. DC start-ability will be borne in mind as much as possible and... open water racing too :-)

Unfortunately we cannot prevent people posting as sol - however I shall no longer acknowledge anything posted in this way.

Would whoever keeps posting as sol go back to each post and edit it to show who is actually posting.
Personally I don´t prefer races with DC starts and DC finishes, then sailors can watch TV instead while the boats manage themselves (that´s not sailing). BUT, I do understand that DC can be the only solution for some sailors and I want them to feel welcommed too. :)

So why not rip off the Asian Sprints Leg3 (Bankok-Singapore Cat Fight) during July? ...and what happened with "TransAt 2011 - Newport RI to The Lizard, Cornwall"?
Hi TheHorn - thank you for your comments. Duly noted!

The Asian Sprints will complete their series by year end, that's a promise.

The TransAt had to be deferred due to the long-running of the St Lawrence race - there will be a TransAt this year, SOL always has one every year!!

I want us to do Bohusracet, I've created the race a long time ago. The real race is now on, it can be followed here http://www.blur.se/2011/07/01/bohusracet-live/
I also got an approval from the organizers before last years race

ORCV Melbourne to Hobart 2024


Welcome to the legendary "Westcoaster," a race that has tested sailors for over 50 years. Spanning 435 nautical miles, this iconic journey takes racers from Melbourne, across the formidable Bass Strait, and around Tasmania's rugged west coast to the finish line in Hobart. Organized by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria, the Westcoaster is renowned for its challenging conditions and adventurous spirit. This year, our SOLers will tackle the course in the swift and capable First 47.7, a yacht launched by Beneteau in 2000, built for speed and endurance in long ocean races. Get ready for an exhilarating ride in one of Australia’s most celebrated yacht races!

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!
