Board » Sailonline Yacht Club » CARIB RUM RUN 2012 - PIRATE NAMES

Page: 1 2 3 4 5 Next

SOL will soon be opening this year's Carib Rum Run and, again, SYC Members will be invited to change their boatnames to something a little more piratical!

The boatname change, applicable only to this race, will be made after you register for the race and does not affect how you log in to SOL!

For information here is last year's list

You don't have to use a name previously used but if you want to do so, then get your preference in quick!!

Name changes will be on a first-come first-served basis here in this thread so start posting your requests now and double-check that no-one else has grabbed the name you want!

All changes will be made as soon as they are noted and after you have registered for the race (once it opens!).

My name is Gödeke Michels
I was beheaded († 1402 in Hamburg)

Poco
I will take the name Curro Caminez, famous "bandolero" very fast :))
I will take on the name ChingShih.

How will that affect other races going on, I thought the boat name is tied to the userID?

Cheers!

In honour of all female sailors, be they pirates or not...!!

Just call me.....Captain Thunderbolt......The most successful Australian bushranger. Known as the "Gentleman Bushranger", he was shot dead in northern New South Wales in 1870. His territory included southern Queensland where I was born.

'Sir Francis Drunkealot' will do fine for me... He was a pirate after all... but went under 'privateer'... with the crown's protection. Much like the CIA today :-D
I like to talk a lot... sometimes I even make sense, mostly not...

RC, I noticed that everybody is using a name separated by a space. I specified different because I thought it had to be a single stream. Any way we can change that to the proper way then? Ching Shih

Thanks,

Laozi - the names will be strung together (as I have them listed in the first post) OR parts separated by a "_" ... there can't be a space.

And, to put your mind at ease, the username doesn't change, just the boatname, so as it is the username that has the SYC Membership, then there is no problem with rankings.

Its a bit of fun we have done before :-D

P.S. do be careful what links you post on SOL - we do have SOLers who are quite young :-)

Regata dell’Accademia Navale 2025

Welcome to Sailonline’s first partnership with the City of Livorno, in cooperation with the local yacht clubs and the Italian Navy, to offer you the online opportunity to race the Regata dell’Accademia Navale. 630nm in length, starting and finishing in Livorno, the race takes you the length and breadth of the Tyrrhenian Sea via Porto Cervo and Capri. Online, you will be sailing a Class 40, which should keep you well in with the top of the real-life fleet which we will be tracking on screen!

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
