Heres the 2015 Q3 racing calendar.
Over the past months, we have been adopting a new WX source for most sprint races - unfortunately due to prior commitments to using this weather for buddy-ups (where Sailonline is partnered in reality with real races/racing organisations) if you didn't catch the Groote sprint last weekend, you are out of luck until September. HOWEVER... Sailonline will be racing the Aegean Rally for the first time and will be using the WRFEM HIRES model winds for that trio of races.
This HIRES format is fabulous for anyone who sails in reality - some say you can read the wind arrows when set to highest density as if you were reading the tells on the water!
Anyway.. browse the calendar and do join in. The principles of racing are the same whether you are SOLing with a Tall Ship polar (this year's choice for the Tall Ships Races is the 90m Barque) or a SOTO40!!
