Reports

Commentary

As oft-reflected, Stamford Yacht Club's annual Vineyard Race has to be one of the most interesting and tactically testing races on the yachting calendar, both IRL and virtually at Sailonline, and this year again, with 114 SOLers in identical J-122s and 86 real all-Classes making it to the start, was no exception. However, and surprisingly, the weather and the tactical challenges to be faced online and on the water turned out to be considerably different, primarily because the real fleet sailed a shortened course and online we did not, witness the elapsed time recorded by the lone IRL J-122, Dire Wolf, of 30:27 hours corrected time, versus that of our online winner, Vida_Maldita of 45:11 hours.

A nerve-wracking online drifter then, and how Vida_Maldita kept it altogether to take the victory by a mere 3 minutes from last year’s winner WRmirekd, with Patrick70119 just a further 3 minutes behind, you can read in their reports under the buttons above. Well done, podium!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Masirah to Chagos


Having crossed, re-crossed and re-re-crossed the Convergence Zones of the Pacific and the Atlantic, we now face our second crossing of the Convergence Zone of the World’s third great equator-spanning sea, the Indian Ocean, taking us from the channel between Masirah Island and the Oman mainland to the Chagos Archipelago. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be sailing our very fine Archer 78, and won’t mention that both locations (of departure and arrival) are heavily militarized and the why’s and what next’s concerning that – mindful as always of SOL Netiquette.

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!
