    Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals
    Nice to see a tribute here as well for Magnus Olsson. A great sailor and a superb ambassador to the sport of sailing.

    I think the Quidango race is more then fitting as well.

    Thank you all for your replies so far, this can help us for future races as well.

    My personal thought is go as planned and if we like it we can always re-visit this one and set it up so we can have even more of a record run.

    We are know the flex error is giving trouble atm. A lot of people had things clear up by using the previous beta link and accepting the permissions popup from adobe.

    Try this: http://www.sailonline.org/windy/run/[insert race inumber here]/?beta=true

    We had a lot of reports this allows people to use the newer version and even fix the files and permissions needed to load the normal race link.

    Hi Sergio

    I have made the change to your country as requested. You now show the correct flag from Brazil.

    Hi gpawlak,

    Thank you for your suggestion, I have finally had a chance to look into it.

    The race itself seems pretty straightforward so no problem there. Similar to the end of the Global race this leg is quite interesting for strategy.
    I am currently looking into the race calendar. Not sure if we have a good spot for it around the 2nd of March.

    You noted you want the race to be part of a round Europe series, I would love to see the rest of the legs you are suggesting and the sort of time frame you have in mind.

    Excel for the polar should be okay, send us the data and I can make sure we can use it.

    Looking forward to hear from you and I get back to you if we can fit it in.

    Hi Zero,

    I am looking around in the forum for a nice little race we can run and came across your post.

    Did you discuss a possible start time or date with Joanne or is this race done in a specific time of year?

    Greetings Jeroen

    Hi,

    This has slipped under the radar a bit but the idea of this route is off course a very good one. I love the Classic real life routes and races.

    I can see no problems with this race and the race setup should be fairly basic. Lets see when we have a nice gap for this in our calendar.

    Nice suggestion

    Hi Hirlonde, I am currently setting up the race and making some changes. As I need to access the race I need the race to be available to make these changes. Hence the funky times in the next race section.

    It will be available soon enough :)

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


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!

This leg will be raced aboard the powerful Rapido 60, pushing sailors to their limits as they navigate the open ocean. Do you have what it takes to conquer the Pacific?

Red Eye - Round White Island 2025

We remain in New Zealand for our second “Red Eye Special” and another IRL Kiwi classic - the Round White Island! IRL still “currently on hiatus” following the island’s eruption of 2019, this race was last raced on SOL in 2020. It’s about 300nm there - out the Hauraki Gulf and south down to the island in the Bay of Plenty - and back to Auckland. This year we’ll be racing in our ever-popular take on the TP-52. Hau tika!

Moheli PYOC 2025


For our first sprint of Q2, we will re-visit the African archipelago nation, L’Union des Comoros, and its most southern island, Moheli, in the Mozambique Channel. Created by MustangMark in 2014 this is a “Pick Your Own Course” round the island, approximately 20nm in our First 27. Expect winds to be light and variable; we are in the Tropics.

Africa by Sea - Tangier to Abidjan


Whatever about pharaoh Necho II’s Phoenician expedition of the 7th C BCE, the Carthaginian Hanno the Navigator with more certainty sailed south from Tangier to explore the West African coast two centuries later, but how far he got is a matter of more conjecture. However, if he did the 2300nm to today’s Ivory Coast he would have found little there other than good shelter in the vast lagoons behind the dunes, much the same as today, excepting the highly industrialized port of Abidjan. Not a great haven for a stop-over but let’s take the 90ft Monohull anyway.

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
