Rather short notice, but I've quickly created a kml for it. (Not 100% sure about the waypoints).

HTH,
Philip

This race is already set up and in the race calendar.. because SOL is not permitted to use the same name as an IRL race as they are mostly copyrighted these days and subject to brand sponsorship etc.. the SOL race is in the calendar as Ron Cazar (spanish for Rum Hunt) :-)

Thanks Schakel but race is already setup and hot-to-trot!!! :-D

Salut filou - this post is in the General Discussion Forum.. if you go back to the Board menu you will see a Forum called Race Calendar - it is in there you will find links to the current calendar and to the drafts for the next two months. January will appear shortly.

SOL will be racing its St Malo to Guadeloupe Ron Cazar starting 1 November at 1000utc. The IRL start is 31 October but as you will see from the SOL calendar, on that day we have the Boston timed race still running, a short/fast Swedish archipelago race and (possibly) people still finishing a race in Italian waters.

The fact the IRL boats are a little ahead of us should make our race all the more interesting!

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
