    Carib Rum Run 2023
    Board » Sailonline Yacht Club



    AHOY THERE, YE BEFUDDLED SCALLYWAGS!!!

    On 16 September at 1500utc Sailonline will start its annual race to collect barrels of rum from Carib distilleries and deliver what remains of their contents to Cancun, Mexico. This year the race will start three days before International Talk Like a Pirate Day (Sept 19)!

    All SYC Members are hereby invited to adopt a pirate name for this race only.

    If you are a paid-up SYC Member or if you join SYC during the Carib Rum Run you may request a change of your usual Sailonline boat name just in this one race to one of your piratical preference!

    Names are agreed on a first-come, first-served basis BUT all must be suitable and "fit to print", Sailonline is a family-friendly site so we reserve the right to disallow names we consider inappropriate.

    All requests for such changes will only be actioned if posted in this thread - hollering in chat is fun, but only by posting here can you guarantee your pirate name! You may pre-request a name in advance of the race opening for practice.

    PLEASE DO CHECK THE LIST BELOW before submitting a request so that you don't ask for a name already taken by someone else before you!

    Please note that the change of boat name for this one race will not affect either your usual login credentials (username and password) or your SYC rankings.

    Once the race opens, as always, I will be endeavouring to change boat names as efficiently as possible!

    REMINDER: you may join SYC and, once your burgee is visible, request a change of name for the race at any time up to and during the Carib Rum Run until race close!

    Good Evening all SOLers,

    If you would still like to take part with us SOTP SOLers in the Golden Globe Races 2018 as an
    SOTP SOLer, you're more than welcome! It is not too late! All you have to do is leave a reply in this Forum Thread and we shall add you.
    Please be advised however that I unfortunately can't watch this Forum Thread 24 hours a day but as soon as I have a chance I will
    check the forum and add you to the list. This however means that it may take some time for the "_SOTP" to appear at the
    end of your boat name, but do not worry as you WILL definitely be added at some point during the day.

    Please also note that when you want to login to your profile on Sailonline, do not include the "_SOTP" suffix as your username,
    you just merely login with your normal username as you always have been doing. For Example: If your boatname is "sol",
    you must sign in with "sol" and your normal password NOT "sol_SOTP".

    Have a great race and Fair Winds!

    Kind Regards
    Patrick

Seychelles Circuit Sprint 2025


Nothing better than a winter break in The Seychelles, and especially if there is a fleet of X-332’s available to charter and to race round an impromptu course of c 21nm taking in some of the archipelago's granitic islands. Tarry awhile before and after, but beware the navy and the pirates, mind!

Race to Up Helly Aa 2025

A-OI!!! The fiery spirit of Shetland’s Up Helly Aa festival is here, and Sailonline’s much-anticipated annual race to Lerwick is back! Spanning 383 nautical miles from Aberdeen, this exhilarating event pays homage to Europe’s largest fire festival. Piloting our Dehler 46s, designed by Judel/Vrolijk in 2015, our SOLers will navigate the challenging waters, competing for glory as flames illuminate the Lerwick skies in celebration.

SAILING NOTE: Gruney may be approached from any direction but must be passed for rounding purposes as indicated on the chart.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Port Said to Tangier


Back in the 7th C BCE, pharaoh Necho II may have commissioned Phoenician sailors to explore south down the Red Sea and if possible return north via the Straits of Gibraltar. Herodotus was inclined to dismiss the story as it included reports of the sun standing in the north, which had to be nonsense. Silly old Herodotus, but who cares, 2800 years later we will repeat the feat, but we’ll go the other way round, and not in a galley but in different modern sailing yachts, beginning with the comfort of an IY 14.98 for the first leg of 1900nm from Port Said to Tangier.

Aden to Goa 2025


Europeans are primarily acquainted with the historical narrative of how spices reached their continent from distant regions. However, the spice trade from Goa to Aden predates the modern era, as detailed in this article. Sailonline is now reversing this route, organizing an eastbound yacht race of approximately 1700 nautical miles across the Arabian Sea for our 21st-century Archer 78 yachts. Wishing you fair winds and may the enticing aroma of spices guide you safely to your destination!
