I can't see any posts in the chat, nor any numbers on the 'steer' page, no names on the leaderboard etc.... on the chat I have the names of people who have written something but no posts as such. I've rebooted and cleared my cache and still nothing is happening.... any ideas?

Sounds to me like a Flash issue. You might need to update. Right click on the Race screen and then on the About Adobe link... if you need to update Flash it will tell you what to do.

Otherwise... clearing your Flash Cache can help.

To do that, on race screen, Right Click and then select Global Settings and then delete.

Have you tried logging on through the SOL Classic Client and then if all is OK, changing the end of the url from ?version=classic to ?beta=true ....

hope hmm or someone sees the links to this thread!

CG has something recently changed on your PC? Such as loading updates?
Might try reinstalling Flash to see if that helps.
Another idea might be just try a different browser such as Chrome.
Typically if you clear the IE cache, and reboot it should clear up.
I've seen something similar once but then it went away. Not sure what happened.

CG,

What is:
- your machine
- what OS do you use
- what browser do you use

Another thought, and not sure if it's possible, but could the font color in the browser or flash be set to the background color. Meaning both set to white?

Just a thought, not sure how that could happen or if it's possible.

What browser? (what OS)? Does it happen in other browsers? Can you select the invisible text, or is not there rather than just invisible? Could you post a Screenshot? have you done anything with fonts recently (added new fonts, or something)?

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

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.

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?
