i can feel a boom in the turkish boats registration soon :)

just as an advise, turkish people are usually impatient hence i would suggest to start the registration to the race asap, the new comers should practice with their own boat.

The passage of the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles will be terrible. The limit from the buoy Samos would have been more open if there was no buoy Antalya. This will be a great race. Prepare your thermos of coffee for the night!

MJedi...we all have made that mistake but on the home page they had announced that sol would not be able to "talk":) but maybe only in the chat room.
Hello Ahmet
True, but when I write something, I made under my login

Not long to wait!!
It is that time of year again.. well nearly! The annual Sail around Turkey race is in the calendar and all ready to race, starting on Tuesday, 7 August @1600utc.

The first year we raced in First 40s, last year we raced in Imoca 60s so... what do we think would be best this year?

TUR_AC!! OK!.. hehehe as you are a co-course designer and the original organisers of this race your wish shall be my command :-) Would be fun to get a pic of a big cat in Turkish waters IRL!

Do the Turkish yachting magazines have websites? Maybe someone could post a link to the race once it is on-SOL (which will be over the weekend!) :-D

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
