Board » Sailonline Yacht Club » CARIB RUM RUN 2012 - PIRATE NAMES

Page: 1 2 3 4 5 Next

SOL will soon be opening this year's Carib Rum Run and, again, SYC Members will be invited to change their boatnames to something a little more piratical!

The boatname change, applicable only to this race, will be made after you register for the race and does not affect how you log in to SOL!

For information here is last year's list

You don't have to use a name previously used but if you want to do so, then get your preference in quick!!

Name changes will be on a first-come first-served basis here in this thread so start posting your requests now and double-check that no-one else has grabbed the name you want!

All changes will be made as soon as they are noted and after you have registered for the race (once it opens!).

My name is Gödeke Michels
I was beheaded († 1402 in Hamburg)

Poco
I will take the name Curro Caminez, famous "bandolero" very fast :))
I will take on the name ChingShih.

How will that affect other races going on, I thought the boat name is tied to the userID?

Cheers!

In honour of all female sailors, be they pirates or not...!!

Just call me.....Captain Thunderbolt......The most successful Australian bushranger. Known as the "Gentleman Bushranger", he was shot dead in northern New South Wales in 1870. His territory included southern Queensland where I was born.

'Sir Francis Drunkealot' will do fine for me... He was a pirate after all... but went under 'privateer'... with the crown's protection. Much like the CIA today :-D
I like to talk a lot... sometimes I even make sense, mostly not...

RC, I noticed that everybody is using a name separated by a space. I specified different because I thought it had to be a single stream. Any way we can change that to the proper way then? Ching Shih

Thanks,

LaoziSailor

Laozi - the names will be strung together (as I have them listed in the first post) OR parts separated by a "_" ... there can't be a space.

And, to put your mind at ease, the username doesn't change, just the boatname, so as it is the username that has the SYC Membership, then there is no problem with rankings.

Its a bit of fun we have done before :-D

P.S. do be careful what links you post on SOL - we do have SOLers who are quite young :-)

Joanne's Test Race Zone

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Marstrand to Cowes 2025


We invite you to another race, which will kick off the third quarter of our ARCH series. We'll set off from Marstrand, Sweden, which, along with Skagen, Denmark, marks the line commonly recognised as the border separating the Baltic Sea from the North Sea. The 650nm route will take our Ripitide 50 across the North Sea and the English Channel to Cowes, England. Watch out for the fast ferries crossing the Channel from Calais to Dover 😊.

Nantucket Sprint 2025


Welcome to Nantucket, from whence Herman Melville’s Cap’n Ahab sailed round The Horn into the northern Pacific Ocean to hunt the gray whale - whose migrations are celebrated elsewhere in SOL’s Q4 schedule - he never to return. And whaling too, as the 19th C progressed, like Ahab disappeared from Nantucket as the harbour silted up and mainland Massachusetts whaling stations benefited from rail connections. But beach life, yachting and nostalgia has rescued the island from oblivion, so to celebrate leisure, SOL gives you the Nantucket Sprint - 25nm in 29er_XX’s from east of Tuckernuck Island across the sound to a finish just inside the mouth of the harbour. Enjoy!

Nearly there; only 2500nm to go, round the Horn and up the Red Sea to Suez into what will more than likely be more headwinds for this sixth leg of our African circumnavigation, to be followed in September by a final sneaky dash up the canal back to where we started all those months ago. We’ll be sailing a not entirely appropriate-for-upwind-work 60ft Trimaran!

Aland Sea TIMED Race
Norrtalje Segelsallskap, 70km NE of Stockholm was founded in 1920, and time was when the society’s season opened with a challenging offshore race from the club line off Flaten island at the mouth of the long and narrow Norrtaljeviken, out onto a triangular course around the Aland Sea, to finish at Simpnas slightly to the north on Bjorko island - some 78nm in total. A fine race that SOL, being from these parts, ran annually up until 2013. Last run in autumn 2018, we return here to race the course again in the form a TIMED RUN in spanking new Club Swan 50s.
