    Hi sailors!

    To clarify the situation created, in the Round Gotland Race 2011, by my decision to put the boat at twa:0, was only to avoid controversy about boatsitting. Not to create it!
    About boatsitting apart from the rule and whether it is more or less ambiguous, I have my own rules.
    My opinion, is that we are competing in SOL and I do not want to compete, taking advantage over others.
    From my point of view outside the rule of SOL is to be on the race course with two ships at a time is playing with an advantage over others.
    I understand that is very different, come on time in the ship a partner that has collided on the coast, for example, or perform any duty, representing a percentage of time boatsitting very small compared to the total duration of the race . To the contrary make a high percentage of the race. The competitive advantages that represent either case are obvious.
    As I said earlier, the reason for my decision, has been to avoid controversy, since in this particular case the percentage was of virtually the entire race.
    In short just fairplay to the whole SOL community! I love SOL and all the nice friends I've made here!

    I want to especially thanks to WINSTON, for his interest in clarify this situation. Thanks a lot my friend, you're a gentleman on and off the water!

    Well mates see you soon in the virtual sea! ;)

    Hi sailors!

    I'm not a professional on forecast stuff, so before read all your comments, I thought that a 4 forecasts update could help to do a smothly transition between forecasts and keep the game more realistic.

    After read all what you explain, really I dont't know... :P

    But I think that we IRL sailings, we can get the every six hours forecast updates, and follow or change our strategy from what we analyze on them and what we get on the boat.
    So I'm still thinking that a 4 forecasts updates could help to do a smoth transitions and not only transitions about the weather also about our tactics changes.

    And I'm not agree on manipulate the forecast, do that I think distorting completly the reality.

    I hope someday can understand properly what are you talking about... :)

    Nice winds! ;)

    Hello sailors!

    This is a SOS call for SOL administrators!

    Because of the serious pathology, very common and widespread, between everybody SOL virtual sailors, the "sailoholics", myself as suffering from this illness, I do this SOS call to the Administrators of SOL for which with urgent character they administer us our medicine, loading a new race!

    Please it is only for health questions!

    Best regards!

    Hi sailors!

    Just congratulate the creators of this amazing simulator!

    Thank's a lot for this nice place where improve our sailing skills in a really excellent athmosphere!

    Well in the other hand, I think that in the set of navigations tools could be useful a compass, that it shows the marks of the Course, TWD and the TWA.

    Kind regards to all the sailonline.org community and good prow! ;)

Viareggio Bastia Viareggio 2026

Our sixth race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil - was planned to be our third buddy-up with another incredible Italian event, the Viareggio Bastia Viareggio (or BVR for short). Unfortunately, in-real-life the BVR has been cancelled this year. But online we shall race it never the less. It’s a quickie – a 160nm roundtrip there-and-back in classic Class 40. Have fun, and if you’re planning a BBQ, piccola isola Capraia halfway across is simply lovely!

Shetland Race 2026 - Leg 2


After the thrill of the first leg, we don't linger long in Lerwick, Shetland. Following brief but joyous celebrations, it's time to set sail back across the North Sea to Bergen, Norway, for the gripping second leg of the Shetland Race 2026!

Covering another unpredictable 190 nautical miles, tactical depth and fierce competition await. This year, we take the helm of the Linjett 33. Designed by Mats Gustavsson in 1994 for Sweden's historic Rosättra Båtvarv, this sturdy, quality cruiser-racer has been a Sailonline favourite in northern waters since 2010. Whether you are chasing victory or savoring the voyage, hoist your sails and let the journey home begin!

Brisbane to Keppel Tropical Yacht Race 2026


When the winter weather turns cool in southern Australia, sailors head up to the warmer tropics. Sailors from all over the world make their way to The Great Barrier Reef for the big winter regattas at Hamilton Island, Airlie Beach and Magnetic Island.
This year's B2K will start on 20 June to offer an event suited to a broader range of boats. Sailonline is, once again, joining with the racers from RQYS to race the 343 nautical miles from Brisbane to Keppel Island, this time in our First 44.7. It might be winter down under, but all you will need is shorts and t-shirts.

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!
