Brainaid's website went down yesterday, 30 December.

When contacted, he tried to restart his server but was unable to, so has submitted a ticket to his server provider.

As soon as he is able, he will restore its functionality.
I have the polar for 90ft monohull in two formats: "detailed data as csv" (90f_monohull.csv) and "qtVLM polar" (boat_90f_monohull.csv). I have the data for the steinlager polar, but I have yet to find a way to convert it into a useful format.
I can't supply the Wx GRIB files.

I converted the Steinlager polar into a csv file, thanks to Svein for emailing me the raw data.

Attached the csv file.

Please let me know if problems occur.

GW, Arthur

BRAINAID WEBSITE UPDATE

Brainaid's server provider had a major RAID array failure (i.e., the hard drive) and is having to rebuild.

There is no time to complete this - perhaps later today/tomorrow.

Please just keep trying to connect.
As an SOTP (Seat Of The Pants) SOLer my knowledge of the resources is strictly limited ... BUT:

POLARS

Polars in txt format are available within each race via the Info tab (blue questionmark tab).

GRIBs

I understand you can register with NOAA to download their files and there is a grib reader at zygrib

obviously those of you using routers will, probably, have other sources of file-data/info, so do please share these here!

Maybe you have to replace the . with a , in my csv file, depending on language/international settings in Excel.
If you're still in control, you're not going fast enough.
Here is the detailed data as csv file for Steinlager II. Can be opened with spinnacer.
This file contains all data needed to create the other formats.

I see there's a qtVLM polar now, if there's any other format you'd like to have, give me an other polar in that format and I'll see what I can do.

Isle of Wight RTI Sprint 2025


Welcome to the Isle of Wight in the British Isles. A past home to Queen Victoria and the foundation of the America's Cup when yacht racing became popular in the 1800's. This particular race was last raced on SOL in 2012 to follow Soler JuJu sailing around the island. We return, long overdue, to race our final Q2 sprint around the island.

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2025

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited 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 13 days and 11 hours to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
