Commentary

To continue our tightly contested sprint championship, we were extremely excited to welcome our SOLers back to the beautiful waters of Scotland for a circumnavigation of Rum Island, after 9 years!

This year’s edition of the race was set at a time preferable to the Eastern Hemisphere, leaving most of our SOLers in the western hemisphere having to wake up at odd hours in the morning to start this race. With this came many interesting techniques of how our SOLers managed to do this, you can read how brellis was able to wake up in their wonderful report that they kindly provided down below!

Although the 21-nautical mile course for this race may have been straightforward, that didn’t make it any less challenging for our SOLers, as the competition was fierce, and every sailor was determined to give it their all to come out on top. The light to moderate weather conditions presented their own set of difficulties, with the subtle changes in wind direction requiring careful attention and precise manoeuvres, with very little room for error.

After some great and skilful sailing, when our SOLers were spotted crossing the finish line at Kilmory Cove, rafa was first to complete their circumnavigation, claiming the gold medal! Second was Kipper1258 and despite the challenges of waking up early, brellis was able to complete our podium in style, claiming the third spot!

A special congratulations to our podium, top 10 finishers, and everyone who competed in this fantastic race!
