Reports

Commentary

97 Sun Fast 3300s showed on the line for this short race, which although it wasn't part of the Sprint Series was very much a sprint. Perhaps, as winner Vida Maldita reflects in his very excellent report under the 'silver fern' above, numbers were lower than they might have been, because another close-fought race was finishing in another semihemisphere, but really 97 is a very respectable turnout for a non-counter sprint, especially one starting at a time because of place when many SOLers should be asleep. Moreover, 97 is 97 more than our misfortunate buddies of the Short-Handed Sailing Association of New Zealand, who, once again, found themselves locked down by the Auckland authorities for fear of a COVID outbreak.

Online as ever the racing was close, and as said, in the end it was Vida Maldita who took the gun – by 10 seconds. How he eked out that lead is all explained in his and GREATSKUA's reports – two good primers in seat-of-the-pants online sailing. Parabéns ao nosso amigo!

Carib Rum Run 2026


Ahoy, ye landlubbers and seasoned salts! Welcome back to Sailonline’s legendary Carib Rum Run, perfectly timed to kick off on International Talk Like a Pirate Day, 19 September!

This year, we command the magnificent Falkun—the ultimate high-tech superyacht modeled after the iconic Maltese Falcon. This 1759nm slalom takes us through the Caribbean’s rum islands to plunder barrels from local distilleries and deliver them to the rum-parched sands of Cancun.

Join SYC before the finish to disguise yer boat with a pirate name for this race only. Hoist the sails, sharpen yer cutlasses, and plot your winning course!
