Virtual Tall Ship Racing Returns for The Tall Ships Races 2022

Posted on: 28.06.22

The return of The Tall Ships Races is almost here and we’re excited to announce that we will once again partner with racing simulator, Sailonline, for the 12th year running to bring virtual Tall Ship racing to The Tall Ships Races 2022…

We want everyone to experience a rising sun on an open ocean; the feel of the wind of your face and the taste of salt spray on your lips, but we know this isn’t always possible. So, if you can’t make it out to sea, there is an alternative way to take part with online virtual racing.

WHAT IS VIRTUAL TALL SHIP RACING?

Virtual racing simulators are online games that let you experience the thrill of an epic race from the comfort of home or anywhere else you have an internet connection. You are able to race against a large online community of fellow racers, all trying to master the powers of the elements and cross the finish line first.

Races play out in real time, following the same race routes and waypoints of the route of the races. You’ll also benefit from realistic weather conditions for the race, giving you the chance to learn how to take advantage of wind speeds and directions to take you to the front of the fleet!

SAILONLINE

Sailonline.org is a community-owned sailing game providing a realistic, entertaining and educational platform for those who love the sea and sailing, wherever they may be around the globe. One of the best things about Sailonline is that it allows more flexibility for beginners, with a hugely increased margin for error and experimentation.

If you’ve ever fancied being the Captain of ship, leading and motivating your crew to brave the elements and steer your own vessel through the race legs you can right here. Registration is easy, just click to register for an account, verify your email and you’re ready to go.

Best of all, it’s free to take part in each race of the series, so what are you waiting for!

You can sign up and find out more about the online race series over at Sailonline.
