Need an ocean race in there somewhere. Best window looks like before the Mackinac. Or maybe run more legs of the Scandinavian Tour??
ShamPir - we certainly should have an ocean race... and we will be ScanTouring too.

Thanks!
So for in June we have had races that are hard to start on DC, or if you can they are too hard to sail on DC due to islands and so forth. This is also the same for the rest of this week, with the IMSYC race in the Med (always tricky) then Wednesday, leg 2 of Vancouver, which will be impossible to do, so I assume there will be no weekend race this week!! So it doesn't let the sailors that have to work or go to school much chance of being competitive.
Going by the races in the July calender, this is going to be the same!!
Any chance of having some open water races again!!!
mustang_sally - thanks for pointing that out. DC start-ability will be borne in mind as much as possible and... open water racing too :-)

Unfortunately we cannot prevent people posting as sol - however I shall no longer acknowledge anything posted in this way.

Would whoever keeps posting as sol go back to each post and edit it to show who is actually posting.
Personally I don´t prefer races with DC starts and DC finishes, then sailors can watch TV instead while the boats manage themselves (that´s not sailing). BUT, I do understand that DC can be the only solution for some sailors and I want them to feel welcommed too. :)

So why not rip off the Asian Sprints Leg3 (Bankok-Singapore Cat Fight) during July? ...and what happened with "TransAt 2011 - Newport RI to The Lizard, Cornwall"?
Hi TheHorn - thank you for your comments. Duly noted!

The Asian Sprints will complete their series by year end, that's a promise.

The TransAt had to be deferred due to the long-running of the St Lawrence race - there will be a TransAt this year, SOL always has one every year!!

I want us to do Bohusracet, I've created the race a long time ago. The real race is now on, it can be followed here http://www.blur.se/2011/07/01/bohusracet-live/
I also got an approval from the organizers before last years race

Tall Ships Races 2025 - Le Havre to Dunkirk


Welcome to the first of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International . The course for this first race is between the French ports of Le Havre and Dunkirk; circa 125nm in Sailonline’s magnificent 90m Barque.
NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

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.
