2014-08-11 13:49:37 - Carib Rum Run 2014


LISTEN UP YE RUM SOAKED SCURVY MAGGOTS!!!



In September Sailonline will once more be racing to bring rum from the Carib to Mexico and all SYC Members are invited to adopt a pirate name for this race only.

This is an annual affair, run in close proximity to International Talk Like a Pirate Day (Sept 19).

It is now tradition that paid-up SYC Members may change their normal SOL boatnames just within this one race to one influenced by all things piratical! You are free to choose any name you like but remember, Sailonline is a family-friendly site so we reserve right to disallow names we think are inappropriate.

All requests for such changes will only be actioned if posted in this thread and will be made on a first-come, first-served basis.

PLEASE DO CHECK THE 2014 LIST below before submitting a request to ensure that you aren't requesting a name already taken by someone else before you!

Please note that the change of boatname for this one race will not affect either your usual login credentials (username and password) or your SYC rankings.

Once the race opens in September, I will change the boatnames as efficiently as possible!

NOTE: you may join SYC and request a change of name for the race at any time up to and during the Carib Rum Run, but your SYC member must valid/current for the duration of the race!

Captain Haddock

"Grips the hammock netting and pulls himself carefully up the side of the good ship Jawz. He doffs his cap in acknowledgement of the bosuns pipes and places his wooden left leg forward one pace to balance himself against the roll of the deck....

....Only to wedge it in a knothole. 'Avast with the Doctors handsaw maties!' he shouts.

And there he shall remain for the rest of this voyage!!"

that be how I sail on SOL, me laddo (it seems)

The Adventure Continues – Leg #6 of the RWW Series.

As part of the 2025 Ocean Championship, this marks the ninth legendary challenge in the series — and one of the most exhilarating yet. The race will be contested aboard the Archer 78’ ketch, a vessel built to push sailors to their limits across the vast Indian Ocean.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
