Commentary
The start of the first race in the SSANZ Two-handed Triple Series is a bit like returning home to a favourite place in the world. Even though most of us may never find ourselves on the waters off Auckland in our lifetimes, racing in the waters of New Zealand’s Hauraki Gulf is simply great fun! Sailonline is a regular buddy with SSANZ for many of its races, while the classic Triple Series also sees us linked with the Young 88 Association which, this time put up a significant entry – ideal competition for us in our virtual Young 88s! one of Sailonline’s all-time favourites.

Starting in New Zealand’s morning, this series is one that should favour those not in a European time zone but, we have some stout-hearted and indomitable racers right across the world for whom racing at all hours (and housekeeping preset delay commands) is part of who they are. Virtual racers flying the flags of 26 nations took part and our podium three this time represent three continents, coming from Finland, Peru and Australia!

The real fleet was tracked via Predictwind and this gave a sense of just where we and our virtual Young 88s were in the field, and it appeared that their exit from Auckland was favoured with an outgoing tide as they made excellent initial progress. The SSANZ Results show that the best corrected time for the Young 88 start, S/Y Split Decision was 5h18m14s (elapsed: 7h40m24s) while our winner, ij, arrived at the finish in 6h14m01s. The locals win!

Congratulations must go as always to our podium for such a great beginning to the 2019 series!

Lake Ontario 300 Challenge 2026

Lake Ontario Offshore Racing (LOOR) welcomes Sailonline sailors to a second virtual version of a race in their annual series, and for the sixth year in succession the LO300. As the name implies, the LO300 is a 300nm offshore race across the length and breadth of Lake Ontario, from and back to Port Credit YC. This year, for the first time, we will be racing the 300nm circuit in Sun Fast 3200s. As usual, there is an overall prize for the SOLer who best bosses Lake Ontario over the two races hosted by Sailonline, this LO300 and the Susan Hood raced back in May, and this year also the race and the Susan Hood count towards the title of Super Buddy 2026; so, let the competition be fierce!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!

New Ice Age 2026 - Neumayer Station to Scott Base


For a second-half of long-distance ice-boating, we take our DNs to Antarctica for a circumnavigation of that continent in two legs clockwise, in harmony with the prevailing winds (such as there are), beginning with a race from Germany’s Neumayer Station to New Zealand’s Scott Base. It’s about 3500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!
