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

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
