	Dear all sailors in AFR 2011 !! Thank you for your response on this Race. I am very sorry, not having being as much online, as I had planned - very far from!! Unfortunally, I was called away, Saturday 10 a.m., because my Father-in-law was very sick, and actually passed away at 3 am, Sunday morning. Therefor, you missed a lot of information during the course - also, I was not able to wake up my students, because of very little online access. I hope you will join again next year, where we will start later, friday (like 1800 UTC). Again. Thank you all FRI Hawk54.

	Hi Hawk so sorry to hear about your father-in-law. The winds weren't conducive to an active race.. maybe we run it in the spring-time rather than end-summer next year? The course is a really excellent one and, picking a time of year with strong(er) winds should make the race a lot more challenging.

	TYVM RC. Oct/Nov next year we can run AFR again. Actually I was a little dissapointed about the course in the beginning, but during the Race, I found that it did have several fine points. Adding some wind, and it is an OK Race I think. /Hawk54

Haida Gwaii 2024

We will end the second quarter of the ARCH competition with a 390nm race around the Haida Gwaii islands (literally "Islands of the Haida people"), also known as the Queen Charlotte Islands. This is an archipelago located on the northern Pacific coast of Canada. In SOL, we last raced on this route in 2012 and few people remember what happened there. Prepare your Riptide 50 well, it's going to be a lot of fun.

Newport Bermuda Race 2024

The 636-mile biennial Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet Race and the Sydney to Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. Founded in 1906, this 53rd running of the Bermuda Race can again also be participated in online.
Entries are invited for one of the four divisions:
Double-Handed Division:
Jeanneau Sun Fast 3600
St. David's Lighthouse Division:
Santa Cruz 52
Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division:
Judel Vrolijk 62
Finisterre Division:
Riptide 50
Details for each yacht are available in the ‘Particulars’ links below. As in real life, you can only sail one boat in one division, so choose your virtual yacht carefully, and because of the unusual (for SOL) 4-division nature of the event, please note results will not count towards any Sailonline rankings.
