"Any reason the Week Championship is left out?"
Because nobody suggested an appropriate badge yet :-) and I used up the TdF ones.

"1 suggestion - perhaps re-order them?"


Nah they're all equal (and alphabetical)

"Edit: I think you can surely include Service yourself 76T..."


I figure some are by nomination :-)

White Jersey for Week Champ #1??

Just seems like putting all the rank related together, same with like Arctic/Antarctic Circle, made sense - I saw they were alphabetical. Not so much about equality as there seem a few categories, rank related, nav related etc...

What did you use to write it - I recently did an app (creates the podium pics), and writing the image to file was a 1-liner... (I think)

Gentlemen... may I also suggest a link on the home page (either as a separate tab at the top or as a Section link below the Mobile Client section) titled Honour Badges?

In this section would be the badge pic, description and the instruction as found in the Forum to apply to your profile.

Again, very well done!

Perhaps we need a specific method of attaching honours so that whenone's cursor is placed over the honour, the title of the award shows up. That way one could compare 76T's awards against AGage's without having to have to refer to a source table located elsewhere . . . . I'm sure is was in the "Manual Tab" . . . no wait it must be on the "RACES" tab . . . no perhaps the "Rankings" tab . . . Ah most likely under getting started" . . . no definately under "Links" then.

See what I mean.

A couple of years ago, we practice raced in a hurricane off the southern USA coast and there was an "OVER 60 KNOTS" club with just a few mwmbers. Fo methat was great fun, most enjoyable to get the right angle of approach to the storm centre, the right TWA and all going well.

THERE SURELY MUST BE AN AWARD for that e.g. a speed "60" sign as attached Could wlways add a "+" or ">".

Not sure of what the badge would be (maybe a coffee machine over an Italian flag?) - but we might need to add another 'Order'....

Those who have beaten WINSTON_4 in a race!

(also good excuse for a thread bump)

2 Oceans rounding Cape of Good Hope from Atlantic Ocean into Indian Ocean or vica versa... light blue background with sub-continent of Africa upon it... I'll claim that as a first ;-)
I like to talk a lot... sometimes I even make sense, mostly not...

Vince - look back in the Thread, 76T posed a small app, all you need to do is point it to the pic you are using now here on the forum, and select the badges from a list, and it will output a NEW image combining them all (like 76Ts and mine)... ;-)

Perhaps we need the "badges" posted on the ocean in a similar way to "ice gates" so that as we sail around, we can pass over a given badge and collect that one, which is then added to one's profile.

Current Races:

Quiberon Islands 2026


The Quiberon peninsula extends as a submerged granite ridge a further 15nm or so beyond the La Teignouse lighthouse on the rocks off its southern tip, surfacing as two small islands, Houat and Hoedic, the duck and duckling in Breton, 5nm and 10nm beyond the light. Treacherous, tidal waters, but on SOL that daunts us not. Of course, we've raced here before, mostly Timed Runs out of Quiberon around Belle Ile, just south of the islets, and back, but this time it's a sprint from Belle Ile's capital of Port Marie round the foul fowl and back. A triangular course of 22nm, appropriately enough for Moody S38.

This rugged and spectacular course tests both endurance and strategy as our SOLers navigate open ocean and ever-changing conditions. Racing the powerful Riptide 50, our SOLers will need precision, timing, and smart routing to master this iconic out-and-back course and secure a strong result!

Roma per Tutti 2026


Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!

Falklands to Tasmania 2026

Welcome to yet another all-new route. This next race is part of our Ocean Championship as well as the ROW series. Falklands to Tasmania, is like last year's island to island. It’s one of the longer ones 6400nm, more than half way around the world (and the Antarctica). It starts the 2026 OCQ2, and will be sailed in our Steinlager 2, contrary to prior notice.
