    You didn't get an answer here in time for the start, and I guess that's why you didn't even start and made an attempt.
    In your next race notice the red line going out from the starting point. That's the racing course in straight lines.
    If have already started and is still not sure about the next mark, go to the sailonline homepage, find your race in the right column, and click on INFO in INFO by brainaid, and you will find all the waypoints listed in order. Hope to see you again soon.

Svalbard Circuit 2025


If you're tired of high temperatures, we suggest a change of scenery and a visit to the Arctic Ocean. SOL invites you to the next ARCH race, which will take place on a new route spanning over 650 nm around the Svalbard Archipelago. Beware of polar bears and don't take them on board your Xp-55, because while they may look pleasant, they are very dangerous.

Lago Viedma Ice Race 2025


Less than one third of the land mass of the planet is to be found in the southern hemisphere, and most of that in tropical to temperate latitudes or in Antarctica, so it is difficult to find good natural ice to race DNs anywhere in August! However, if you take an internal flight from Buenos Aires to Aeropuerto Internacional Comandante Armando Tola de El Calafate by the shores of Lago Argentino, it’s only a 100km taxi ride to Lago Viedma, where we have set out a few beacons on the ice for you for a quick 80nm blast around the four corners of the lake, and as it’s so remote here, no need to worry about breaking the solitude of monks or suffering PL!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Baia de l'Oiseau to Carnarvon


How ever shall I return to report with clarity to my Great Sultan – asked Sinbad. It needs be told this island and all its fables shall be expunged from the annals of every thousand and one night. The wind howls – and sun be none (it’s Winter, Sin’bro, ed.) – and all days from the west, but let’s launch anyway and see if we can work our SOL Balloon north as the days pass aiming for Asthralaya, where The Mahabharata tells the ancients once tested mighty weapons, about a quarter and a million qasbah away (2500nm, ed.), perhaps one month.
