Commentary
Since 2013, at least twice a year, Sailonline has been racing in association with Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club in the waters of Hong Kong and the China Sea. As #COVID19 pandemic restrictions remain in place for international racing , this fun course around the islands of Hong Kong was a last minute replacement for a China Sea offshore race.

SOLer Go4iT recognised the course as one he had raced in the past, that was known as an “over-nighter” that would finish in time for an excellent breakfast at RHKYC clubhouse. For us, however, it was a brand new event that slalomed round several islands and marks requiring good concentration – more than a few racers, relying on delayed commands for mark-rounding, came seriously unstuck and had to retrace their steps, a couple more than once!

The race saw an excellent participation of boats flying the flags of 27 nations and, as you can see from the timelapse, linked below, two of our final podium were always within the top 10 from the start, while the third moved up the fleet to consolidate a top spot. It is quite striking to observe the seeming ease with which these truly competitive racers then stayed the course to secure the podium! Nicely done, guys!

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!
