Thanks, but after looking around that site maybe Iquitos would be better as that is as far as our sol map goes

Back to the top with this one!

What would be neat is if someone could go through our races and identify which were eligible for which honour!!

:-)

A nice job for someone prepared to do the homework.

In the meantime I might try and do something for races as they crop up... maybe its something we could put in the race calendar?! or maybe not.. as this is just for fun...

:-D

NOTE
Browse the first couple of pages as there are additional badges mentioned (I hadn't spotted before)

AND

There's a zip file to download and create your avatar here:

Thanks RC for coaching me to get badges on my avatar. I have been away far too long and have so much reading to catch up on about SOL and SYC developments in teh last few years. I promise not to be absent for so long again :)

I can't remember all the plaes I have journeyed to over teh years, so been conservative with badge selection - looking forward to building on it .....

This goes round and round.. but here are all the badges with images that have been proposed. The honours are nearly all based on real nautical honours... here's some info

Page for Downloads:

Is there anyone out there who can take this further - automate it in some way? Improve on AGage's original "Badge-r"? would be great fun!

mmmm ... what's the difference between "Order of Golden Shellback" and "Sacred Order of the Golden Dragon"? ... in both definitions, it comes of the intersection between the equator and the line of date change ...

The only difference I could see from here is that the dragon references appear in connection with wooden ships??

I think we should keep with 76T's original definition for SOL on the first page of this thread.

The Golden Dragon is for International Date line... the Golden Shellback is for Lon 180/Lat 0 ...

That is how it has been up to now anyway and as so few use the badges I think its fine as it is!

Current Races:

Roma Giraglia Regata 2026

Our eighth race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil – is another buddy-up; this one with the Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . Founded in 1984, as the new Traiano yacht Harbour neared completion, the Circola since then has developed into one of the major yachting competition centres in Italy, and next to the 450nm Roma per Tutti (which SOL buddied earlier in the year), the Roma Giraglia Regata is its other headline offshore event. First raced in 2005, the 210nm course takes competitors from Traiano to a rock on the inside of the Ile de la Giraglia off the northern tip of Corsica and back to the Italian mainland for a finish in the bay of Santo Stefano. We’re racing this one in our Class 40!

Bornholm PYOC


Welcome to the Baltic Sea, where we are about to hold another sprint race. The course runs from the north to the south of the beautiful Bornholm island. There are only two waypoints, the start and the finish so the choice of which side of the island to sail along is up to you. Our Albin 79s will cover a distance of approximately 23 nautical miles.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Masirah to Chagos


Having crossed, re-crossed and re-re-crossed the Convergence Zones of the Pacific and the Atlantic, we now face our second crossing of the Convergence Zone of the World’s third great equator-spanning sea, the Indian Ocean, taking us from the channel between Masirah Island and the Oman mainland to the Chagos Archipelago. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be sailing our very fine Archer 78, and won’t mention that both locations (of departure and arrival) are heavily militarized and the why’s and what next’s concerning that – mindful as always of SOL Netiquette.

Carib Rum Run 2026


Ahoy, ye landlubbers and seasoned salts! Welcome back to Sailonline’s legendary Carib Rum Run, perfectly timed to kick off on International Talk Like a Pirate Day, 19 September!

This year, we command the magnificent Falkun—the ultimate high-tech superyacht modeled after the iconic Maltese Falcon. This 1759nm slalom takes us through the Caribbean’s rum islands to plunder barrels from local distilleries and deliver them to the rum-parched sands of Cancun.

Join SYC before the finish to disguise yer boat with a pirate name for this race only. Hoist the sails, sharpen yer cutlasses, and plot your winning course!
