2013-07-28 19:05:46 - play list for round the rock wanted.
As you remeber a little group of SOLers will go round the south ireland rock in 2 weeks...
As it will be a nice trip of 5 to 7 days you are welcome to submit your musical proposal, for music to listen and to play...
personal recording live on board will be send to the more voted song eheh

Due to the noise level onboard classical or jazz music will be somehow difficult to listen to. Rock (sic!!!) Music and related noise productions are mandatory.

Of course, The Fastnet is something
"Once in a lifetime" - (Talking Heads) - a good starter.
Prestart procedure includes
"Holding the compass" (Family).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0ct7suhIgA
As Solent is a tricky water,
"Diggin in the dirt" (Peter Gabriel)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0C3DHp36zc or
"Do the Strand" (Roxy Music)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2yGudJ_BQ0
might be unwanted but neccessary - followed by
"Dirty Work" (Steely Dan) to clean up the mess.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghcsrblhn7A
Of course you will hope for:
"Lord, here comes the Flood" (Fripp/Gabriel)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNmYVHGkx9k
and somebody might respond:
"Tide is high" (Atomic Kitten)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8CMsQ-p1ls
Looking out for new weather from the west might need a
"Watcher of the Skies" (Genesis)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bETFh4eRdM8
and - related to the horse whisperer - a windwhisperer. We have one:
"Listening Wind" (Talking Heads)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEluoeMLTCI
At the Needles the fleed might get squeezed a bit so you will shout:
"Don't stand so close (to me)" (Police).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNIZofPB8ZM
Way of Right Problems have to be solved
"Urgent" (Foreigner).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA6id4--BDg
On the long leg to the rock you will have time to meditate about
"The Water" (Leslie Feist)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpUoXG6JiO4
until the Chef is calling:
"Suppers Ready" (Genesis)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kORf_0uVTw
The night might start with some
"Kaltes Klares Wasser" (Malaria!)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAg4VmBY7so
and of course - the usual night calm. So you are
"Becalmed" (Eno)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QKEpoDYqdo and
"Waiting for the wind" (Spooky Tooth)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6KAYUXkXP4
At dawn it might get
"Frosti" (Björk)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i1SqFJ3K8Q
but soon the new front will be in and you are becoming
"Raiders on the Storm" (Doors)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qRJIBtbc2c
Unfortune could bring some thunderstorms and
"St.Elmo's Fire" (Eno)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-3djUYgebU
and soon you feel like a
"A salty Dog" (Procul Harum)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7JBpRragNU
and be on the
"Road to Nowhere" (Talking Heads)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPQcnjlwtE4
and you would ask yourself:
"What have I done to deserve this" (Pet Shop Boys)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VtuZqQq1Hs
But then you see THE ROCK with his
"Eternal Flame" (Bangles)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwajTekSAcM
on
"The Lighthouse" (Eno/Byrne)
Rounding the magic point you will feel
"A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers" (Van der Graaf Generator)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asPDvjUYFy4
Make sure, you round it properly and not end in the
"Blue Lagoon" (Laurie Anderson)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CiSBD9dcoI
otherwise somebody might find out:
"This is not America" (Bowie)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygO6IeJResw
On the way back you might see
"Weird Fishes" (Radiohead)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdFqkhX0lN4
When everything works out and you are the leader, you will feel
"Lonely at the top" (Randy Newman)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlmGJQq3AlM
You might be in the mood to listen to
"Oh Fortuna" (Carl Orff) if nothing else could help for victory.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdIpoE2LEps
Afterwards in the club the main thing starts:
"Sailors Tale" - here presented by King Crimson.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtbtr4_o-lM

PS: As myself, this list might be a bit outdate, but still worth listening to every single piece :-)

Here's a few of my favorite sailing songs.
Links to YouTube for checking out. There are a few others that I need to find.

I was going to start a new thread for sailing songs/music, but this works just as well.

Hope you enjoy. ;-)

Race to Up Helly Aa 2026

A-OI!!! The fiery spirit of Shetland’s legendary Up Helly Aa returns, and Sailonline’s annual race to Lerwick is once again upon us. Covering 383 nautical miles from Aberdeen, SOLers will tackle winter waters steeped in Viking tradition. This year, we race the classic Frers 33, a proven cruiser-racer born from the golden era of offshore racing and still a sturdy performer both on the virtual and real water. Can you master the course and reach Lerwick in time for the flames?

SAILING NOTE: Gruney may be approached from any direction but must be passed for rounding purposes as indicated on the chart.

Red Eye - Hobart Convict Run 2026

Back in 2010, one of our SOLers of the first hour, AUS_Scott76, came up with this ‘Convict Run’ out from Hobart, past Cape Raoul and the penal colony of Port Arthur, round Tasman Island, up and back down the east coast of Tasmania, to finish with a tight technical run – so Scott called it – up the picturesque D'entrecasteaux Channel, home to Hobart once again. It’s 250nm, ideal for a bit of ‘Red Eye’ in comfortable Finngulf 43’s, and if the original idea was to pick up some convicts on the way for a bit of R&R and sea air, you may always drop’m back before returning to Hobart!

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
