    Only if it's faster:)

    Don't get me wrong. I support the decision. And with current wx, it might be a more interesting leg.

    But I do think that this leg is the least comparable to the irl race because SWR don't have to take the course restrictions into account.

    Does that mean that you are going to follow the ice restrictions of the IRL-race, ita?;)

    I have made a comparison of Leg 2 between myself, some of the top finishers and Team Brunel. As we can see in the attachment, the southernes had a better average speed, but not enough to compensate for the distance sailed.

    It's interesting to see that TBRU sailed the shortest distance and yet they went much further east than the top SOL finishers.

    The SOL polars seems to be matching the IRL-boats pretty well. TBRU had an average SOG of 10.49 vs. Gilles 10.35 and bigbull 10,78.

    outlaw, ita and others have said what's needed to say about this. I have a question to those opposed to routing or want a routing/no routing class: Do you use the predictor? If you do, you should be in the routing class, because that's what it is.

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!
