Hei all

Simo aka Smo 41yr. Helsinki, proud to be finnish. Sailed Finn-dinghy as young, club races with small boat. Inferno 26 and ORCi offshore and track with Tempo 28, OD with X-99 and First 31.7 also Suursaari race. And Archipelago races with Tempo 28. And some cruising with some other boats. Even rigged rowing boat at summercottage to sail. And sea kayaking of course lately more. As doing offshore ice skating might test some ice sailing or kitewing ice http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH7PH9ktkLY

Hew, hew565:

I live near New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Ground zero for Katrina and the BP oil spill :D

I started sailing in college and went straight to Windsurfers. I sailed 470s for a few years, then had kids. Now sail dinghies and crewed on a Corsair tri for a while. I try to avoid the big keel boats these days :)

I also build and race IOMs and Victoria model sailboats and have learned much since i started sailing at SOL!

No competitions. Not so fond of cruising despite some sailing in USA / Canada / Australia / Scotland / England / Spain / Portugal.
Prefer coast sailing with dinghies. Now on 505, and little 5m classic dinghies, red sails, 60 years old... Family sailing !

Hi All. Just found this site and LOVE IT! Probably have to quit my job to be able to virtual sail more! Grew up sailing Stars, Lightning, Snipes. Did my first Annapolis-Bermuda at 14. Lots of offshore deliveries. I peaked my career with the J-Class beauty SHAMROCK V before going back to med school. All good stuff. Looking forward to being on this site frequently this winter.

Cheers,
William

Well, this is me... Jepsom ;)

39 years young. Been on the waters since I was a small kid, but not allways sailracing. From 18-19y I mostly sailed archipelagoraces and oceanracing with X-95 and Express. This year I´m sailing on a X-35. This SOL-stuff is like a drug...

Fair winds!

Current Races:

Great Bear Ice Race 2025


You can fly to Great Bear Lake Airport, but if the ice is good, instead hire a pick-up truck, load your disassembled DN into the cargo bed and drive, first following the McKenzie River north, and then straight across the lake to the start of our final Ice Boat series race of roughly 100nm in length. The Airport authorities have agreed to leave all lights on, so you should just about be able to see where you are going as you zing and rumble, PL-free over the ice!

Chile Islands RTI Sprint 2025


Across the Canal Puyuhuapi from Puerto Cines on the Chilean mainland lies the Parque Nacional Isla Magdelena, and further west across the Canal Moraleda from Magdelena lie the islands of the Chonos Archipelago. Returning for the first time since 2017 we find ourselves in vari-charted waters here, with the mapping between physical islands and their names not 1:1 but rather some:some. It’s only 26nm but you could get lost! Good luck.

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
