    Weekend be flyin' the joli rouge movin' an illicit cargo of casks in the aft hold, so sailing under the nondescript sea name "Bootliquor"

    Aye aye, Bootliquor — yer name be sly and suited to the trade! Slippin’ ‘neath the radar with casks in the aft and the joli rouge flappin’ bold, ye’ll be runnin’ the Rum Run like a shadow in the mist. Smooth seas and smoother spirits to ye, ye crafty corsair!

    Thank you for this Joanne. We miss you around here so much!

    Very sad to learn of Rod's passing. What a gentleman sailor he was. in the few years I've been floating around SOL waters, Rod was always there, a fellow Maple Leaf flag on the water. Usually well ahead of me on better lines :)

    I will miss his constant presence in the races and encouraging comments. Rest in peace and fair winds, fellow sailor.

    The bilge rats aboard are insistin' on a new name for the ol' barge. Weekend would like to be renamed Gin Rummy for the remainder of this perilous voyage.

    be that Bombay gin or summat else? Yer moniker is changed!

    Way late starting. Figure for the record I should state that I am and will continue to race SOTP only. Looking forward to the challenge of trying to keep up with the fleet.

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
