Report

Commentary

This was a long race and after about a week of upwind sailing, Appo38 who had led most of the way up until that point lost the lead to the redoubtable WRmirekd, when the wind started to swing from predominantly north to definitively south. Was that the monsoon arriving?

Appo38 however never lost touch with WRmirekd, and after a further long week of now downwind sailing crossed second, a mere 4 minutes behind our man from Poland. A long and exhausting race deserved a short and refreshing report said Appo38, and you will find it under the little button above (which if you look closely features the coats of arms of Mozambique and Somalia, the nations of our ports of arrival and departure, respectively).

There could have been a lot more to blog about this race, as SOLer WetWing, Rear Commodore of Durban's Point Yacht Club, has cruised these waters extensively (well as far az Zanzibar or zo) and gave us many tips in Chat, which, such is the nature of our Chat, have been lost to posterity. A warm and wonderful cruising ground full of challenge and adventure. You shoulda sailed to have learned more!

The Vineyard Race 2025


For the first time since first hosting a virtual Vineyard in cooperation with Long Island's Stamford Yacht Club back in 2010, due to an operational calendaring error, Sailonline has missed the start of the real life race, the USA’s Labor Day weekend this year unusually falling across the turn of August. Silly SOL! So, a week late please join us anyway for a virtual rerun of Stamford’s iconic annual overnighter from their club line out the sound to Buzzard's Bay Light near Martha's Vineyard Island and back again, leaving Block Island to starboard. This year, Sailonline is making its magic MC 38 available to competitors, a race boat with a quirky polar that will require you to stay wide awake as you speed around the c 250 nm course, in rockstar style!

Great Nicobar to Marion Island 2025

The Adventure Continues – Leg #6 of the RWW Series.
We’re setting sail on the next stage of the RWW Series: a 4,400-nautical-mile passage from Great Nicobar to Marion Island. This demanding leg will test endurance, strategy, and seamanship at the highest level. As part of the 2025 Ocean Championship, this marks the ninth legendary challenge in the series — and one of the most exhilarating yet. The race will be contested aboard the Archer 78’ ketch, a vessel built to push sailors to their limits across the vast Indian Ocean.
