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!

San Diego Islands Race 2026


Sailonline is proud to once again partner with the San Diego Yacht Club for the annual Islands Race! This iconic offshore challenge spans approximately 140 nautical miles, starting in Long Beach, rounding the Catalina Islands, and finishing in San Diego. Shifting coastal winds and tactical island roundings will test every sailor’s judgment and nerve.

This year, our SOLers will race the Ker 40, a proven high-performance design by Jason Ker and built by McConaghy Boats. Fast, responsive, and demanding, the Ker 40 rewards precision and smart strategy. The competition will be tight. Every decision will count. See you on the start line!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

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.
