Raja Muda Selangor International 2018

Sailonline is delighted to announce it is partnering with Royal Selangor Yacht Club in the virtual version of its Raja Muda International Regatta.

The Raja Muda is the Crown Prince of Selangor, one of nine constitutional monarchies that make up the mainland peninsular territories of the Malaysian Federation. A keen sailor, the Sultan, as he is today, conceived the regatta as a stop-over/feeder to South East Asia’s other sailing spectacular, Thailand’s Kings Cup. First run in 1989, the Raja Muda has evolved into a full week of racing and entertainment, featuring three overnight passage races, plus 3 days of inshore racing in Penang and Langkawi, all organised by the Royal Selangor Yacht Club in association with the RORC.

Sailonline’s virtual yacht on this occasion – racing Leg 1 – is the International Platu 25, a nippy ship that should relish the fickle conditions in the Straits of Mallaca.

Sailonline’s race is now open for pre-race practice.

Reports

Commentary
As a Swedish not-for-profit organisation, Sailonline’s homewaters are the Stockholm Archipelago, so racing here brings a wonderful sense of familiarity. Mistli is one of the original racers on Sailonline, and her birthday BBQ race through the islands has become a welcome tradition in our ever-changing world. Racing Seacarts makes this a brilliantly challenging race and requires SOLers to hone their mark-rounding and island-avoiding skills. SOLers who have spent some time Practice Racing can usually be found doing rather well and there is always stiff competition for the podium.

This time, 99 boats registered in the race and with the Top 10 arriving in less than 5 minutes of each other, our podium three really do deserve our congratulations! Very well done, indeed!

Narrative
Leg 3 - Loss of Endurance. The ship is crushed by the ice and eventually sinks. The crew salvage as much they can carry and spend the next 5 months camping on the ice and making slow progress NW. In three lifeboats they eventually reach Elephant Island.

Reports

Commentary
From our modern perspectives, unless you’ve experienced conditions in the Antarctice, even as a tourist on board a relatively comfortable cruise ship, it is difficult to imagine what it could have been like for the Shackleton Expedition to find themselves ice-bound and having to row in these icy waters to have any hope of survival. From our armchairs, rowing and sailing our longship can, however, give us a sense of just how difficult making headway must have been. Even for those SOLers using routing software this wasn’t the easiest of races, so mindful of the challenges faced by the original expedition noted here we should congratulation our podium three for their success. Arriving within 10 minutes of each other, but 20 minutes ahead of the chasing pack, was well done indeed! Bravo, guys!

Aland Sea TR 2018
Norrtalje Segelsallskap, 70km NE of Stockholm was founded in 1920, and time was when the society’s season opened with a challenging offshore race from the club line off Flaten island at the mouth of the long and narrow Norrtaljeviken, out onto a triangular course around the Aland Sea, to finish at Simpnas slightly to the north on Bjorko island - some 70nm in total. A fine race that SOL, being from these parts, ran annually up until 2013. Not a moment too late then - five years have passed and autumn is upon us - for a further re-enactment, this time in the form a TIMED RUN in spanking new Club Swan 50s.

Gray Whale Migration Autumn 2018
It is autumn in the N Hemisphere and gray whales are beginning their annual southerly migration, from their feeding grounds in the Bering Sea to the warm waters off the Mexican coastline. There have always been natural challenges on this journey, with younger whales falling prey to orcas, but, sadly, mankind's pollution of our planet's oceans, especially in the form of plastic waste, has heightened the risks. Racing our superyacht this time, spare a moment's thought for how we can protect and conserve oceans and marinelife.

Golden Globe Race - Leg 1 to Storm Bay
Welcome, all, to the 2018 Golden Globe Race and Sailonline’s virtual version of this iconic 50th anniversary rerun of 1968’s first ever non-stop single-handed round-the-world race in yachts and with technology in keeping with that historic time.
To reflect the challenge being undertaken by the real racers, as announced previously, SOL invites all who feel so inclined to add their boat name to the post in FORUM declaring you will race by the proverbial "Seat Of The Pants" (SOTP) with no outside assistance from routing software or other external aids, BEFORE THE STARTING GUN IS FIRED.
To simulate the real race which features a 90 minute minimum stopover in Storm Bay, SOL’s online version has been divided into two legs. This first leg then is from Les Sables-d’Olonne to Storm Bay. When the leaders approach Storm Bay, Leg 2 from thence back to Les Sables via Cape Horn, will open. YOU MAY NOT START LEG 2 UNTIL AT LEAST 90 MINUTES AFTER FINISHING LEG 1. The penalty for starting Leg 2 before finishing Leg 1 is NO RANKING. The penalty for starting Leg 2 within 90 minutes of finishing Leg 1 is 5x the time you started too early.
DO NOT START TOO EARLY!
Fair winds and good luck!!
