2024-12-26 15:26:42 - SOL COOrdinator's role as such ends DEC 31 2024
Hallo SOLers !

I want to inform you, the Sailonline community, that effective January 1st 2025 I will relinquish my duties of “COOrdinator” of the Sailonline platform.

During the past twelve years one aspect of this role has been the interfacing between the day to day operational side of SOL (Ops-RC-tech) and the Board of Sailonline Nav Sim AB, and as consequence of this role’s peculiarity I needed to be always attentive to whichever ongoing issue, on the ball and ready to intervene when needed and explain when requested.

It has been like working for 12 years without any annual leave.To say the least: I am slightly tired (and OLD).

Unless the two Board members, who are fully aware of my decision and with whom this matter has been discussed several times during past few years, find a volunteer to fulfill the vacant role, the role will cease to exist and the consequence will be that of more direct comms lines between Board and day to day SOL business.

This is less than 5% of what I have been doing at SOL, but the remaining 95%, that I WILL CONTINUE TO CONCENTRATE ON can be planned , and caters for annual leave (LOL)

A new job title for me will be the last of our priorities, but to explain shortly what I was doing and will still do and the new positioning in the SOL backstage , here is the answers:

I will be one of the three members of the day to day Sailonline Management Team (the other two being Jan (BONK) and Richard (Go4iT).
I will continue to work with them and for them in the areas of :

---Everything related to Championships

---Rankings in general and in particular
(Championships, SYC, Nation)

---Prizes (Virtual and material including
performance certificates and Special Series
awards)

---And some other organizational stuff that
runs behind the SOL stage.

So……basically very little changes but it will be far more relaxing for me.

Also the email address will remain, at least for now and for convenience the one you know: coord@sailonline.org

I take this opportunity to wish you ALL a fantastic and rewarding 2025 on the SOL waters, and more importantly in your personal lives.

HOLD FAST!

Piero

Thank you so much for all you have done for all of us in SOL.
You have been a consistent part of the leadership team in my time here.
Enjoy your semi retirement! Well deserved for sure. :)

Tobruk to Iskenderun 2026

Welcome to the fourth of our nine races across the length and breadth of the Magical Mediterranean Sea, and the second that is not in partnership with a real-life event, this time for good reason, which we won’t get into here. From Tobruk to Iskenderun it’s 670nm in length, with the added complication that the island of Cyprus will be in your way. Hoping, possibly forlornly, for plenty of downwind sailing, we’ll take the Lagoon 55 for the voyage!
