Me too. Set DC when zoomed-in for the finish line and overshot it by a significant margin. Never done that before. DC seemed to fire about a miole after the orange dot point.

The forum posting on the beta doesn't work currently.

The reason is that when I copied data over to beta I changed everyone's email address to be xxx@yyy.disabled to prevent accidental email sent to anyone during my tests. The forum software currently refuses posting because of this.

Exactly the same thing happened to my DC overnight

For folks who are displaying a difference between the Orange dots for CC & TWA set a DC using each then check the DC list to see if the Times listed correspond

I know when I first reported the problem it was because I had just done that - to check my DC would fire at the right place. It was the TWA dot that was under reporting by a few minutes. The DC did fire at the correct time, it was the TWA dot that was wrong.

The DC I had that fired late I also checked and at that time both dots appeared where they should have.

(just as an aside, due to lightning detection software on my PC the clock on my PC is accurate to within 1000ths of a second with timeservers, so I don't think it is a time sync issue)

It's not particularlly important but I have made two runs and only one shows in the boat list and also in the leaderboard. Is this a fault??
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

I think during timed races in the boat ranking list you have your fastest time listed plus your current run.

As far as the leader-board (thru ? on top right) it should show all runs but I can't see it and don't think it is working for this race as the client will have an internal link to the board not the external link required as this is on a different site.

Hi! Started boat 2 after having finished #1. I missed the finish line, butwhen I want to steer it correct, the only boat I can get in contact with is #1! And of course I can't make it move, since it has finished the race. Strange... /Musigny

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
