Rainbow..A timed race would be fun. My favourite is the Boston, but the main things are....windy and a fast boat...VO 70 is the best....and it can be anywere....The Aluetians (?) could perhaps be a good place...Robert

Robert - did you not see that there IS a timed race already included?? At the moment it is Cowes-St Malo but it might be a longer one in that same area :-)
In FEB, I designed and submitted 3 races with not a single comment from the SOL community. Ah well... perhaps no interest. Will just keep on sailing quietly.
I have also designed a few races. Even have a race seriess now called 2011 SOJORA Series.
No races have been posted, but I am sure they will be.
Have patience... I am sure we are not the only ones designing and submitting races.
Its fun designing them anyway.
St. Lucie - Jupiter Ocean Racing Association (SJORA)
ShamPir - I am so sorry.. there was I thinking I was up to date with setting up SOLer races.. at least so they are happily sitting in the archive waiting for a slot time... and I read your post.

I have revisited the Race Proposals Forum and will be endeavouring to make up for not working on your races before now.

Oddly enough as my closest chum lives just S of Tampa I had been thinking a race on that side of FL would be fun and.. voila! you have made one for us!!

I will post in the Race Proposals Forum as soon as each race is set up so you can have a look at how it will appear when being raced.

@RC pls schedule my 'short adriatic race' asap as a Weekend race starting i.e. Friday 1. April if that slot is still free ;)
start time friday at 10UTC and finish Sunday at 17 UTC would be most 'realistic'.

mmartin - we "discussed" this in the Race Proposals forum and your race is scheduled for 1 April @ 1800utc. This time is good as 1 April is a Friday and it is morning in Australia/NZ, early morning in USA and evening in Europe/Africa.

So.. hopefully.. a bunch of people will sign up to race in our first Adriatic race on SOL!

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!

Shetland Race 2026 - Leg 1


Get ready to tackle the North Sea as we sail from Norway’s stunning outer Korsfjorden to the rugged Shetland Isles! Welcome to an exciting new chapter for this classic 190-nautical-mile ocean route, bringing our global community together for a true test of strategy and seamanship.

This year, the race is a proud stop in Sailonline's 2026 Super Buddy Championship, which features our real-life racing partnerships over the calendar year. We are stepping aboard the Linjett 33, a sturdy Swedish cruiser-racer designed by Mats Gustavsson and built by Rosättra Båtvarv. Seasoned veteran or eager newcomer, prepare for intense competition.

Plot your course and see you at the start line!

Thessaloniki to Port Said 2026

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series. Only marginally less unlikely to be ever raced in real life during SOL’s lifetime than our previous race from Tobruk to Iskenderun, this 710nm race takes us from Greece’s ancient northern port of Thessaloniki through the Aegean island maze, south east into the Levantine Sea to a finish in modern Port Said, in splendid Swan 65s!
