Posted by RainbowChaser Posts 2656 Registered at 2009-06-14 09:44:50	2013-10-19 17:11:00 - PIC Coastal Classic Yacht Race 2013
	This coming week sees another first for Sailonline - we are the official virtual race partner for this year's Auckland to Russell race, better known as the PIC Coastal Classic Yacht Race. In the past we have raced Young 11s (monohulls) but as this started as a multihull event, it seems right that we try racing a multihull this year! Sailonline's boathouse has two racing multihulls and one multihull "gin palace" - it is probably not appropriate for us to race in our GB90s so the choice of our boat has to be between: F18s Seacarts 60ft trimaran and Orange 125ft Cat. Here is the Official Entry List Which of our four racing multihulls will perform best please? NOR from 2012 and for the forecast wx just look in the Sydney-Auckland Tall Ships race! The tall ships are gathering near Russell in the Bay of Islands at the moment! ____________ --- Last Edited by RainbowChaser at 2013-10-19 18:10:15 ---

	RC my choice would be F18s -love the high speed bumps - although i haven't an idea whether there is going to be breeze or not. Sail Fair.

	Would go with our 60ft cat as it's not raced since long .. another might be seacart .. F18 is not realistic in that race and orange too fast

	Would consider the 60' tri too, very common and raced everywhere... For a big multi, that is... <<DO NOT USE FOR NAVIGATION>>

	The scratch boat seems to be Team Australia "Big Bird". A 60' tri that just shattered the Sydney to Auckland record. Our 60' tri might be a bit slower, but still make a good match. On the other hand, our seacart should be close in performance to the 8.5 Class cats, there are several entered as this is a local box rule design.

	60ft TRIMARAN Two 60ft Trimarans are entered in the race. Team Aus just broke the SYD2AKL record and are going for the race record. http://livesaildie.com/team-australia-syd-to-akl-record-tick-akl-to-russel-record/ “We may have arrived on different ships, but we are all in the same boat now!” Martin Luther King Jr.

	Copy from FB : Sophie CG Turner The Orange 125 Hew Hamilton I've always liked the Seacarts, but we have not raced the 125' Orange in a while. Sophie CG Turner That's what I thought Robert Neilson 60' Trimaran to take on these guys. http://livesaildie.com/.../ <<DO NOT USE FOR NAVIGATION>>

	I would chip in for the 125 cat just cos I need some speed after those Tall Ships!

	We can race 125ft later no need to ruin this race

	I like trimarans, mine is 6' so I wouldn't mind a 60' Just wish I had £250,000 to buy one IRL. 😎 LaoziSailor Everything gets done by not doing anything!

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024

Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
