	Thank you ,both maitai & Bimmer for the incredible interest, co-operation & work done! IMHO, the greatest improvement was linking SOL wind - we sail with the wind SOL gives us, I believe... Again, thank you both for this great router Ray/Sebensa

	I believe we have a problem with exporting the .csv file. I get this from kroppyers converter: ERROR: Time conversion failed, trying to continue. DCs could be wrong. ERROR: Can't find TWA values in the file, trying to continue. DCs could be wrong. ERROR: Can't find COG values in the file, trying to continue. DCs could be wrong.

	Which csv are you speaking about?
Posted by JB Posts 305 Registered at 2013-03-07 08:54:34	2016-06-21 08:44:58 - Re: qTVLM new 5.3.6 version
	Viva all. The “problema” - if we can call it like that - was the addition of an extra column (“GUSTS”) in the generated CSV file after the release of the 3.5.6 qT version. Once again, as already suggested, it should be possible to customize the columns to be generated in the output CSV file. IMHO there are #12 columns in the CSV file that we don’t need at all, and only contribute to heavier files. Sail Fair.

	When you have a problem with the converter, please send me the csv file that is causing the problem, then I can have a look at what may be causing the issue. Otherwise, all I can do is guess: Does the csv use a different kind of separator? e.g. "," instead of ";" (I believe it used to be ";", but I'm not sure, maybe it used to be ",")

	It's 5mn to record a small excel macro that will get rid of the columns you don't want each time you load it.

	C’mon Phillipe, Generate first to remove after doesn’t make much sense. Can you explain me why do we need to have these columns: Sail/Engine, SOG, COG, AWS, AWA, CS, CD, GUSTS, RAIN, COMB WAVES HGT, MAX WAVES HGT and last, MAX WAVES DIR? Wouldn’t it be more logical/practical/quicker to each one have the possibility to choose the route output columns? Thank you. Sail Fair.
Posted by maitai Posts 114 Registered at 2016-02-25 08:15:33	2016-06-21 12:22:37 - Re: qTVLM new 5.3.6 version
	These data were asked from people who are using qtVlm IRL. Rain for instance has been the subject of a big debate in the past month (how to count it), or waves, currents, etc. Recently gusts and pressure were also requested and added. One can also imagine air/sea temperature, cloud cover, dew point, pollution, and much more. We will therefore probably continue to add more columns. It's easier to ignore data you don't care about than to look after them if you need it. Size of the file is not an issue, being between really small and just small. Actually, there is a bug in headers when you ask a route export with raw data. I don' want to push a new patched version for PC now (Android and iOS versions have been patched already), but if you need a working version with raw data export just tell me. That bug existed also in 535 version. Philippe

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024

Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

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 is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

The Beagle in the Straits of Magellan 2024

Both before and after visiting the Falkland Islands, the Beagle extensively explored the south eastern coast of South America, hither and thither, from north of the Rio Plate to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, but it was not till the end of June 1834 that the ship made it into the Pacific Ocean, transiting via the Straits of Magellan. Online in 2024, the choice is yours - passage the strait or round the cape; 400nm or more in your Class B Tall Ship.
