	I agree with Schakel. I am one of those who hasn't sailed during the last months because of: 1. I disagree to sail in the same competition as routers 2. the amount of races to sail is to much to keep you up in the ranking "Sailing is an Art"

	We do agree that WE need time anyway to be hight in the ranking!!! But for my part I do think that it's a big stimulation to compet with some who r using routers!!!! Caus you learn a lot!!! MO-PAYEPAYE

	the discusion router - non router is a non discussion. It is very possible to do good in rankings as a non router, but it is time consuming. To my opinion at least the wiz rankings are missing.( nation+newbie) To atract newcomers and give them some competition introduce a ranking for them in which they compete 10 out of 20 races That way they make quick ranking progres against players in the same situation. Nations cup might be fun as wel. More divisions may be added but i am fine with the current ranking system

	it would be helpful if the dates of the races were listed on the individual ranking pages. then you could more easily tell which races were about to 'expire' thx

	I occasionally post a list of races most likely to be dropped from the rankings. Last one was about a week ago. Find it here: http://tinyurl.com/2f278f9 Cheers, Philip

	As a non-router I think that you may learn more from competing with routers but I think it would be much more fun to compete against non-routers only. The main reason is that when competing against routers you know that they are going the best route considering the forecast will not change. If there are only non-routers the outcome of different tactics would feel much more uncertain and the race would be much more exciting. An easy way to test this is to set up a couple of races for non-routers only. No ranking points for these to start with. Lattjolajbanladan

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!

The Beagle in the Straits of Magellan 2024

Both before and after visiting the Falkland Islands, the Beagle extensively explored the south eastern coast of South America, hither and thither, from north of the Rio Plate to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, but it was not till the end of June 1834 that the ship made it into the Pacific Ocean, transiting via the Straits of Magellan. Online in 2024, the choice is yours - passage the strait or round the cape; 400nm or more in your Class B Tall Ship.

Cape Town to Auckland 2024

Welcome to the second leg of this Round The World series 2024. It's also the April edition of this year's ocean race championship. The course is the same as the one sailed in 2023, but this year we sail the iconic Swan 65, as suggested in the concluding RTW race last year.
Prepare yourselves for an epic 30-day journey, navigating through the unpredictable waters of the South Seas.
