	Hi @all Problem: sailonline.org: website stopps while beeing loaded. Neither in firefox or in IE7 i can open completly Mozilla shows 'waiting for connect.facebook.net...' in status-line. Also other websites have the same problem while most load correctly. I think, it is a windows setting or browser-setting. Tried already to check everything. I have no idea. I'm using vista srvpack 2 mozilla firefox 4.01 Kind regards Achim

	Hi Achim - the only suggestion I can offer is to empty your browser cache and then to check that you have the latest version of Flash loaded. To do this you can either right-click on the game screen (if the frame appears) or if you can't see that at all, then go to: http://www.adobe.com/ap/products/flashplayer and click on the download. The Adobe site will tell you if your version of Flash is up to date. I have brought your post to the attention of the SOL Gods in the Engine Room so maybe they, who are way more techie than me, can help or, perhaps, even another SOLer will help! Good luck!

	Hello Achim, You aleady noted it in your post, something must be wrong with your computer settings. While loading a Sol page there is no need to wait for a server over at facebook. Clean up the cache of the browser, check the default page the browser loads at start and have a look if there are any proxy settings incorrect. Cleaning the history might help too. I suspect IE is having no issues loading the pages, have a look. Let us know if you got it and what it was.

	Hi Folks, i got it!!! Tried everything the whole day long... disabled spybot, firewall, all what was possible to disabel, hacked the registry,... ->same error downgraded Mozilla to 3.17 ->same error With the nerves at the end i looked for Windows-Updates and installed 3 optional Updates for my NVIDIA Hardware (grafic-card, Network-adapter) ->everythng works fine I suggest it was a problem of the network driver during communication with the DSL-Modem. That's real computer-live. How stupid. The cause of all this trouble was that i had to reinstall completly the pc with the original software-release as of the date when i bought (3years ago) it. Please forgive my long story Now i can go to sail IMSYS 2011... Kind regards Achim

Current Races:

Neumayer Station to Biscoe Wharf 2024

It’s Autumn now in Antarctica, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. The penguins are starting to huddle together to keep warm and the sea ice is growing. Time to get back to Biscoe Wharf then, before the water becomes impassible. Including a detour past Argentina’s main two Antarctic stations, it’s only 1900nm, so, although we’ll be in a hurry, we will take the bigger, better ice-classed Paratii 2 once more, just to be sure!

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!
