Board » Sailonline Yacht Club » First SOL meetup in north Europe

UPDATE!
Just recognized the vote are anonimous :o!
Please left a short comment saying who will join( I am guessing the 4 eheh) and WHERE you would like to make next! (or contact me if you want to stay anonimous of course)

Dear friends,
I am glad to invite you to the first SOL meetup in north Europe!
the choosen location is in DK as it is easier to link to the event to the biggest regatta around the island of Fyn
http://palbyfyncup.dk/
The circuit is well known to all the Soler as we raced few times around that island.
The location is also easily to reach with plane, car, train, boat.

To accomodate the higher number of partecipants there are 3 basic options:

1) Only dinner (on 26th or 27th May)
2) Dinner + Racing weekend with Soler´s boat.
3) Dinner + Racing weekend with a charter boat.

Option 1) is open to all the SOLers that want to have a great evening

Option 2) is open to all the SOLers that will join with her/his boat and would like to enter IRL race and take some SOLer on board.(cruise in company style). You will get a first class crew of experienced SOLer and expenses cover for the race entrance. ( to be shared between crew on board)

Option 3) is open to all the SOLer that do not have a boat but would consider to charter a boat (40ft class) for the weekend.
All expenses will be shared between friends on board.

To give your comment, ask question(s), submit your NOT binding feedback on which option you would like to follow please contact me.
As for privacy reason I do not have access to the SOL maildatabase please share this invitation to all your friends.
Any question, anytime to me.
Best regards and goodwind waiting your reply.

Abend, Gilles,
danke, für deine Antwort. Ich wohne in Hannover.

It would be really fun to meet other SOLers in DK. I will think hard about this. Don´t think I´m intersted is sailing (I´ve done 9 Gotland Runt, so it´s not that), but I have to see what I will be doing at the time you have suggested. I will be back :))

Considering joining you guys for that quite little drink 25/26/27 May. What would be the airport, how far from the venue (hire car, train, taxi ??) and where might we kip?
Billund airport is served by Ryanair and is in the middle of DK about 40 mile away... regarding kip, let see what we can organize ;)
I will definately be there. Most likely not sail (for the first time in ten years)

Cheers
Lars Bøcher
(aka. Mouthansar)
was not a surprise that the most answer I got were "no boat?, no party!"
Accidentally the 2 options that I have to grab a boat has sinked in the last weeks....
So I have to postpone this on a next future.
Could be that I will go there anyhow as there is holiday in Germany.

However the plan B is the following:
I will attend to the presentation of SOL during the buddyup with the Silverrudder, same location, end of September.
The local SOL crew is already up and running for that.
So stay tuned, there WILL BE a SOL party in DK this year! ;)
Good wind
Gilles

Just remember...
The Silverrudder is the 22. September and placed in Svendborg, only 70 km south-southeast of Bogense. All SOL'ers are welcome to join with the SOL team. Just bring your computer, laptop or whatever. We have our own stand, our own internet connection and will be racing against the IRL fleet with an X-99.
If you want further info, just contact me on finn@sailonline.org

Regata dell’Accademia Navale 2025

Welcome to Sailonline’s first partnership with the City of Livorno, in cooperation with the local yacht clubs and the Italian Navy, to offer you the online opportunity to race the Regata dell’Accademia Navale. 630nm in length, starting and finishing in Livorno, the race takes you the length and breadth of the Tyrrhenian Sea via Porto Cervo and Capri. Online, you will be sailing a Class 40, which should keep you well in with the top of the real-life fleet which we will be tracking on screen!

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

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 this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
