  • Seven Seas and Seven Islands + 1
    Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals
    In short:

    A series to sail around islands in each of the Seven Seas plus the Mediterranean. Normalize the distances to around 1000nm by expanding the circumnavigation course.


    Probably about a week per island. Guarantees every point of sail and a mix of open water and inshore / channel navigation. See attachment for details.

    Iceland in the Arctic Ocean (800nm)

    Newfoundland in the North Atlantic Ocean (1100nm)

    The Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic Ocean (580nm) in a figure 8

    Sri Lanka in the Indian Ocean (700nm)

    Hokkaido in the North Pacific Ocean (950nm)

    Tasmania in the South Pacific Ocean (750nm)

    The Kerulen's in the Southern (or Antarctic) Ocean (~300nm)

    Plus 1: Sicily in the Mediterranean Sea (500nm)

    Using a Win 10 Dell Latitude

    Been trying to get QT to play with AGL. qt is not getting the NMEA feed. Badger1 and I looked at all settings but were stumped. Any help appreciated. Read thru forum for tips...none that I could find apply.

    I'm new to Win10 so is there a security hangup?

    AGL says NMEA server started and ready for connection on port 5010.

    My Boat info is correctly showing in AGL.

    qt NMEA settings correspond to AGL's and match what I use on my Mac.

    any thoughts?

    Hi Kipper,

    So I have AGL working but I have not been a PC guy for a long time and it looks like I need to buy the full version of qtVLM to do much of anything useful.

    Looking forward to working things out! Thanks for what was/is a ton of work.

  • Bar-tailed Godwit Race
    Board » Flag Officers » Race proposals
    The Godwit migrates from Alaska to New Zealand in the Northern fall, then back to Alaska via Japan/China/Korea in the Southern Fall. A total of over 29,000km

    https://www.sciencelearn.org.nz/resources/296-flight-of-the-godwit

    The bird stokes up on food and flies over a week straight with out stopping, feeding, or sleeping...sound familiar?

    Three legs are required:
    1. Anchorage to Wellington
    2. Wellington to to Hegura, Japan in the Sea of Japan.
    3. Hegura back to Anchorage.

    Perhaps an existing race — Melbourne to Osaka comes to mind — could become part of the "SOL-er Migration" Series?

Tall Ships Races 2025 - Le Havre to Dunkirk

NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

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.
