Commentary
The second of three races being set up by Sailonline at the request of SailNewport was a tricky 138nm venture east from Newport, past Martha’s Vineyard, around Nantucket Island and a slalom back past the Nobska Light, around Naushon Island, south past Pasque and Nashawena Islands, and then north through Canapitsit Channel, leaving Cuttyhunk to port, to home! All in all a challenge for those in timezones other than EDT!

A sizeable registration for the race of 298 boats, flying the national flags of a record 42 nations, saw 203 of them set off on course. With the race starting at 2100utc, late in the European day, the crews from SailNewport would be thought to have had the time advantage but the competitive spirit of regular SOLers (racers on Sailonline) came to the fore and, perhaps with benefit of #COVID19 lockdown, the race was competitive across all continents!

Congratulations must go to the three podium place takers arriving with only 1m31s between them. All Sailonline regulars they are to be applauded for managing to snatch victory from the jaws of the USA East Coast contenders hot on their transoms! With many USA-flagged racers being on our virtual waters for the first time, that 10 of them appear in the top 20 is truly an excellent result.

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)!
