13 September 2017

The Czech Offshore Yachting Association Authority (ČANY - a World sailing member) is delighted to welcome Sailonline for the first time to the southern shores of the Baltic and the 2017 running of the ČANY LANEX Offshore Cup. The event sees the real and virtual fleets race a 300nm course across the Baltic sea – starting and finishing off the N German coast, close to marina Kühlungsborn. Conventionally raced in standard mono hull boats, with limited LOA ranging from 35 to 38 ft, the organisers will always consider opening another class if there is keen interest and a request to do so.

The event emphasises the development of basic seamanship skills which are not common among those living in a land-locked country, such as the Czech Republic.

- working with charts, pilots, boat electronic, self-evaluating meteorology and sea state situation, planning and handling terrestrial water navigation as well as an offshore course
- sailing in all conditions while taking overall responsibility for the vessel and crew, taking into consideration its capabilities and status to ensure safety
- coping with long-term crew load and planning good man power allocation
- looking after a boat’s material and equipment while preventing damage to them and minimising the risk of having to retire from racing.

Africa by Sea - Abidjan to Swakopmund


Our exploration of Africa by Sea continues. Next, it’s off to Swakopmund, on the water’s edge of the Kalahari desert. It’s a wind-blasted coast, and a venue of choice for those seeking to set wind-powered speed records. More likely than not, we’ll have to beat into it in our Steinlager II, to finally find some shelter behind the walls of Platz am Meer where there is a marina of sorts. Only 2200nm!
