Posted by Patrick70119 Posts 17 Registered at 2012-08-08 09:57:08	2023-09-01 14:45:32 - Carib Rum Run 2023
	AHOY THERE, YE BEFUDDLED SCALLYWAGS!!! On 16 September at 1500utc Sailonline will start its annual race to collect barrels of rum from Carib distilleries and deliver what remains of their contents to Cancun, Mexico. This year the race will start three days before International Talk Like a Pirate Day (Sept 19)! All SYC Members are hereby invited to adopt a pirate name for this race only. If you are a paid-up SYC Member or if you join SYC during the Carib Rum Run you may request a change of your usual Sailonline boat name *just in this one race* to one of your piratical preference! Names are agreed on a first-come, first-served basis BUT all must be suitable and "fit to print", Sailonline is a family-friendly site so we reserve the right to disallow names we consider inappropriate. All requests for such changes will only be actioned if posted in this thread - hollering in chat is fun, but only by posting here can you guarantee your pirate name! You may pre-request a name in advance of the race opening for practice. *PLEASE DO CHECK THE LIST BELOW* before submitting a request so that you don't ask for a name already taken by someone else before you! Please note that the change of boat name for this one race will not affect either your usual login credentials (username and password) or your SYC rankings. Once the race opens, as always, I will be endeavouring to change boat names as efficiently as possible! REMINDER: you may join SYC and, once your burgee is visible, request a change of name for the race at any time up to and during the Carib Rum Run until race close! ______________________ 2023 List of Pirate Name Changes Barnacle Bob--------------- Patrick70119 Bilge Brain Brellie------------- brellis Bloody Vengeance---------- CollegeFund CaptainRat--------------------- Musigny DavyScoundrelDunkin-------- WRmirekd DreadPirateRoberts----------- brewman Flying Neapolitan---------- Mediterranean GetaPatch--------------------- Go4iT Greybeard the Great-------- BadgerOne Handsome Sailor------------- mb007 MadMartigan------------------ mmartin MagisterWigbold-------------- HappyHour Perna de Pau----------------- batatabh Red Coyote------------------- sailj29 Red Devil---------------------- wsguerin RedPearl----------------------- SKOVSER Saltheart Ripper-------------- Kipper1258 Satisfaction--------------------- FreyjaUSA ______________________ PLEASE NOTE I WILL CHANGE THE NAMES IN THE SERVER AS SOON AS I CAN ONCE THE RACE OPENS FOR PRACTICE - A * BY A NAME MEANS I HAVE MADE THE CHANGE (THE SERVER MIGHT BE TAKING A WHILE TO PROCESS IT).

Round Greenland 2024

Just as Skip Novak was embarking for Kamchatsky, Amyr Klink also quietly slipped his Antarctica moorings and by now Paratii 2 has reached Reykjavik, where he invites you to join him on Leg 5 of our High Latitudes Series, a full 3650nm circumnavigation of Greenland. The course is clockwise round, so down the North Atlantic to Cape Farewell, then up the Davis Strait into Baffin Bay and on into the Arctic Ocean proper, where, hopefully and certainly virtually, Paratii 2’s special ice-breaker features will get us thorough the summer ice out onto the Greenland Sea and back to Reykjavik. Stay warm!
