Aaron would have been hard to beat in this race. It's a pity he's not here to follow.

Il n'est jamais trop tard pour rendre hommage à un gars formidable.
Aaron, ta disparition crée un grand vide.
Sincères condoléances à sa famille et ses amis

It is never too late to pay tribute to a great guy.
Aaron, your death creates a vacuum.
Sincere condolences to his family and friends

AGage is now and will be in every race we hold as the client is his lasting legacy for this special community. His dedication, genius and passion for life, sailing and SOL are evident in each course change we make, each Wx forcast reviewed, each polar explored and on and on.

More than anyone other than my children, the thought of Aaron enters my mind daily as I continue SOLing in his honour.

AG... until we meet over the horizon.

Your friend and student,

William/SP

Dear departed friend Aaron:
I do this race utilizing the tools that you so generously developed for our community. I'm sure that there will be boats somewhere where you are

It looks like Leg 2 has been scheduled to start Tuesday 23rd Oct at 2200 UTC. Wednesday morning in our part of the world.
RC has put an updated calendar up on the homepage and in the forum. I'll start a new thread for Leg 2 soon.
As for the other Legs, the idea is to have one per month so that we arrive back in Adelaide around the 1st anniversary of Aaron's passing.

Lake Ontario 300 Challenge 2025

Lake Ontario Offshore Racing (LOOR) welcomes Sailonline sailors (SOLers for short) to a second virtual version of a race in their annual series, the LO300. As the name implies, the LO300 is a 300nm offshore race across the length and breadth of Lake Ontario, from and back to Port Credit YC. Once again, as is our wont on Lake Ontario, a fleet of Beneteau First 36.7s is being made available to virtual racers. There is an overall prize for the SOLer who best bosses Lake Ontario over the two races hosted by Sailonline, this 300 and the Susan Hood raced back in May; so, let the competition be fierce!

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.
