Commentary

No reports on this one, but your roving reporter sharply remembers what went on. Soft balmy winds generally from ahead but sometimes from the sea reigned for the duration of the two weeks window, but early doors, over the course of Tuesday, 5 April, up to 9 knots of breeze out of the WSW developed, which as far as the 7-day WX stretched was as good as it was going to get, and the usual suspects, bar Kipper1258, went out for a spin, or rather an overnighter, with Pit8008 coming out on top as the wind faded away again.

Several days later, new WX's started to show that a much better window would likely develop for Friday, 15 April. And it did, but in the early hours of the UTC morning and those who had not checked the 2230z WX before going to bed (or out for the day) missed it badly, as the favourable breeze died away as quicky as it had come. Pit8008 missed the ideal depart time by slightly more than a minute , thus ceding his lead to Italy's Cippalippa, who had not featured Tuesday the week before. Starting at 4 seconds past midnight, Cippa recorded a time of 9:44:11, several hours quicker than the previous bests as the winds now got up to 11 knots and briefly more, again out of the WSW. Pit did it in 9:44:24, and Vida_Maldita starting 11 minutes later recording a 9:44:30, with Kipper starting for his one and only run a further 16 minutes later just missing the podium in 9:44:36. Well done all who spotted the moment and scrambled out onto the course as soon as they could!

Great Bear Ice Race 2025


You can fly to Great Bear Lake Airport, but if the ice is good, instead hire a pick-up truck, load your disassembled DN into the cargo bed and drive, first following the McKenzie River north, and then straight across the lake to the start of our final Ice Boat series race of roughly 100nm in length. The Airport authorities have agreed to leave all lights on, so you should just about be able to see where you are going as you zing and rumble, PL-free over the ice!

Chile Islands RTI Sprint 2025


Across the Canal Puyuhuapi from Puerto Cines on the Chilean mainland lies the Parque Nacional Isla Magdelena, and further west across the Canal Moraleda from Magdelena lie the islands of the Chonos Archipelago. Returning for the first time since 2017 we find ourselves in vari-charted waters here, with the mapping between physical islands and their names not 1:1 but rather some:some. It’s only 26nm but you could get lost! Good luck.

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!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
