SNAG

nacrr just pointed out that there was an invisible boat at rank 199 in the Tall Ships race... turns out to be the guest boat (which should not be sailing)... I made it inactive.

199 was not at the start (so it wasn't as if the boat was just sitting at the start) but between 200 and 198 which at time of writing are at 184.65 and 183.72nm respectively.
I don't think the SYC Ranking is getting updated. It used to show ongoing races with a DNF (did not finish) designation during the race. But still showed the ranking during races, and included them n the points count. Now it looks like no one is racing the Tall Ships Med. race.
I confirm that there isn't the daily updating of rankings SYC.
In all the rankings, at the time, is missing the last Tall Med.

The ranking issue should be fixed next night.
GOOO hmm GOOOOOO!
you are exceptional, thanks for all the work you are doing for us.

In the Georgian Bay race,

Now that my predictor goes past the Wx box boundary the yellows dots set for 3 hrs do not correspond correctly.

*
They are moving backwards but seem to be marking the halfway point between my boat & the boundary.

None so blind
The pink bounds are the course bounds.. the wx overlaps by a margin.

It may be that we need to start being a bit more generous (again) with wx system sizes. Folks were unhappy about course bounds that left them way adrift if they'd been unable to get to a puter, so we kept course/wx sort of "tidily" together. Maybe we need to let the wx zone be a couple degrees either side of the course bounds in future.

Thanks for the heads-up.
I've run across something in the Georgian race. DCs not cleared from the DC list after they have fired. I went to set another DC about five minutes after one had fired. Wanted to change a value in the new one, so went to list and selected the only one listed (thinking it was the one I had just entered). When I made the change in the field and hit "submit", I got an error that said time had already past. After a bit of head scratching, I refreshed the list and there was the unchanged new DC.

Shouldn't the old DC clear out of the DB shortly after it fires?
I don't think this is a 'new' issue.

Just as the DC can take a while to appear in the list unless you refresh it. it can take just as long to disappear from the list unless you refresh it.

I have found this to be the case "forever" :))
I've got a strange thing happening at present - the wind speed and direction reported in the status bar at the bottom of screen is not the same as what is reported from crosshairs in top right?
The speed/direction in the status bar appear to be from one hour into the future?!

Not sure whether this is a server issue or something to do with the fact we have just moved into Daylight Saving here, I have tried restarting browser and PC but problem persists.

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.

Race to Up Helly Aa 2026

A-OI!!! The fiery spirit of Shetland’s legendary Up Helly Aa returns, and Sailonline’s annual race to Lerwick is once again upon us. Covering 383 nautical miles from Aberdeen, SOLers will tackle winter waters steeped in Viking tradition. This year, we race the classic Frers 33, a proven cruiser-racer born from the golden era of offshore racing and still a sturdy performer both on the virtual and real water. Can you master the course and reach Lerwick in time for the flames?

SAILING NOTE: Gruney may be approached from any direction but must be passed for rounding purposes as indicated on the chart.

Red Eye - Hobart Convict Run 2026

Back in 2010, one of our SOLers of the first hour, AUS_Scott76, came up with this ‘Convict Run’ out from Hobart, past Cape Raoul and the penal colony of Port Arthur, round Tasman Island, up and back down the east coast of Tasmania, to finish with a tight technical run – so Scott called it – up the picturesque D'entrecasteaux Channel, home to Hobart once again. It’s 250nm, ideal for a bit of ‘Red Eye’ in comfortable Finngulf 43’s, and if the original idea was to pick up some convicts on the way for a bit of R&R and sea air, you may always drop’m back before returning to Hobart!

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
