    Nice idea! I might join in at a later stage. Anyway, I already look only a few times at my boat during working hours, and decide on tactics and strategy mainly in the evening and a bit in the morning.

    Should be solved. Take a look tomorrow, after the rankings update.

    Thanks Jeroen. Following discussion on chat, problem solved in the meanwhile. Something with Firefox ...
  • Black race screen
    Board » Technical Support
    Hello everyone,

    My internet connection seems to function properly, and the Sailonline site also.

    However, my race screens are completely black. Never had that before. Am I the only one, or have others the same problem?

    Regards,

    Francois

    Hello,

    The Sailonline manual is absolutely clear: boat sitting is allowed.

    Regards,

  • Re: Routers
    Board » Technical Support
    I have one of the better commercial routers for the real-life boat. I did use it a few times on SOL. The great plus is that I learned to use my routing software and got used to its idiosyncrasies. The great minus is that I started to find SOL boring.

    The problem was easily solved: I almost never use my routing software for SOL races anymore!

    Bonsoir,

    Il semble en effet qu'il y ait un bug qui se produit parfois lorsque le parcours fait un 180°. Nous avons rajouté un waypoint pour résoudre le problème sur cette course. Il faut recharger l'écran de course pour voir le nouveau parcours.

    A+

    The Polar test race is not included in any of the rankings. Inexplicably, the Round Iceland race is included in both the Weekend and Week Race Championships. Clearly, I am not the only one who gets confused with these rankings. :-)


    The polar test race was started up at very short notice, and that is why I did not include it in the rankings.

    The Round Iceland is a good example of a more general issue. Most week and week-end races are shorter than 400 NM and usually take 1 or 2 days, and seldom more than 3 days. Depending on their start day (week or week-end), it is easy to say what ranking they belong to.

    Somewhat longer races like Round Iceland (800 NM) are more difficult to classify. It started on a Wednesday evening (during the week => week race) but also spanned a week-end (=> week-end race). I thus decided to classify it both as a week and as a week-end race. That was also metioned in the description of the race, BTW.

    Any better idea? :)

    Regards,

    Francois

    I quite like the idea, but it is difficult to implement for SOL.

    If it is easy to change the direction of the chat, I support this proposal as well. And now, I go to the IRL boat. Have a nice day!

Regata dell’Accademia Navale 2025

Welcome to Sailonline’s first partnership with the City of Livorno, in cooperation with the local yacht clubs and the Italian Navy, to offer you the online opportunity to race the Regata dell’Accademia Navale. 630nm in length, starting and finishing in Livorno, the race takes you the length and breadth of the Tyrrhenian Sea via Porto Cervo and Capri. Online, you will be sailing a Class 40, which should keep you well in with the top of the real-life fleet which we will be tracking on screen!

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
