Commentary
Sailonline’s third buddy race with QCYC was truly an interactive sailing experience. With all boats starting at the same time, it really was good to see how well the fleet raced each other. Sailonline was racing its Super Maxi 100 which kept it reasonably competitive.
Sailonline had “smoothed” the course at the start a little, but even so with two major turns at Redcliffe and Tangalooma within the first hours, if you weren’t able to be awake it was definitely a matter of praying to the Delay Command gods if you were sailing SOTP (Seat Of The Pants, i.e., without benefit of router). Fortunately, missing either of these marks, and even the one at NW4 Red Beacon meant a beaching rather than sailing into the wide blue yonder so it wasn’t too disheartening. The run, then, up the coast became a sprint, with the front of the Sailonline fleet really chasing for position all the way to Gladstone.

The Sailonline race had participants flying the flags of 32 nations and it was a real delight to see a large Australian contingent of 136 boats taking part and, of these, 6 were in the top 20. An excellent showing! Of course, our podium three, representing Europe and USA and Australia are to be congratulated for a supremely well sailed race with a super tight finish. Bravo guys!

Roma per Tutti 2026


Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!

It’s one of the longer ones 6400nm, more than half way around the world (and the Antarctica). It starts the 2026 OCQ2, and will be sailed in our Steinlager 2, contrary to prior notice.
