    What would be good for me and maybe others is the ability to enter a delayed command with a specific time rather than a fraction of hours. So for example enter steer cc 129 at 1820 UT.

    Would it be possible to include on the maps the names of islands. Maybe just the major ones, could maybe only make them visible when you zoom in to a particular level, or maybe toggle them on / off. Quite often I look at the map and would like to know more about where we are in the real world in more detail.

    Ahhh, OK that explains why when you zoom right in on your boat it sometimes looks like it is ahead of boats that are listed as being ahead of it.

    What about the ability to download the race positions in Excel format. When I'm at work its great to monitor positions every couple of hours via excel and see who you're gaining on and who's pushing to overtake you. Right now I have to copy and paste all this stuff which is very tedious. Maybe someones already generated a program to do this quickly, otherwise and XLS download would be great. You can also work out others speed which is really useful.

    Not sure if this is a bug?
    Board » Technical Support
    I am in the GOld race and just hit 68 degrees west and cant go any further west, another boat is in the same situation, has the playable area been set to stop at 68 west or is this a bug?

    Performance reductions
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi

    I know that if you run aground or change direction you suffer a performance reduction. If you instruct your boat to sail according to a fixed TWA do you suffer a performance reduction every time the server makes an automatic alteraction to your course to keep you on the fixed TWA course?

    Another suggestion. I like the fact that the boat polar shows the current boat situation by a spot, it would be good to be able to make this window larger to see the coloured contours more clearly, or maybe just highlight the contour/s relevant to the current wind speed.

    I would like to be able to switch from one race to another without having to exit the Client Program. Currently i two races and it would be good to swap from one to the other.

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!

Tall Ships 2026 - Antwerpen to Stavanger


Welcome to the third of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International . This third race is from Antwerpen back up the North Sea to Stavanger in Norway – another proper tall ship training adventure of circa 450nm, online again in Sailonline’s classic Clipper 240.
NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

Lake Ontario 300 Challenge 2026

Lake Ontario Offshore Racing (LOOR) welcomes Sailonline sailors to a second virtual version of a race in their annual series, and for the sixth year in succession the LO300. As the name implies, the LO300 is a 300nm offshore race across the length and breadth of Lake Ontario, from and back to Port Credit YC. This year, for the first time, we will be racing the 300nm circuit in Sun Fast 3200s. As usual, there is an overall prize for the SOLer who best bosses Lake Ontario over the two races hosted by Sailonline, this LO300 and the Susan Hood raced back in May, and this year also the race and the Susan Hood count towards the title of Super Buddy 2026; so, let the competition be fierce!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!
