2 - Graphical tool for, at least, measure distances from boat and angles.

Thank you Zappe!

Just uploaded a new version to the play store:

0.50
Added weather update info when logging in to a race and after a weather update.
Added info about the weather, angle and distance to the aim point in steering mode.

If you ever want to install an older version for any reason all versions are available from here:

zappe - absolutely loving the App. Thank you so much for creating it. It save me from extra hours of steaming E in the last Tall Ships race as I could put in an emergency course correction as I woke!!

Is there a way you can include the in-race messages too? perhaps as an option in your drop-down menu? I know they aren't in every race but when they are, it's usually to give useful/good info that folks relying on the App will miss.

2015-08-05 16:17:12 - Buttons switch suggestion.
Buttons switch suggestion.

Following several catastrophically bad commands with the app my suggestion is to switch the positions of the “CC” button with the “*” one - pls see attached PDF file.

Again, thank you Zappe.

2015-08-08 10:58:38 - Mad CC’s changing during button “*” operation.
Mad CC’s changing during button “*” operation.

Sometime ago during a SPRT race I’ve noticed that during the “*” button operation the sailed CC at the time would change to CC+ 180º.
If you didn’t notice that “subtle” change before making a HDG’s correction on the boat (using for that precise maneuver the mentioned “*” button) you would obtain a dreadful maneuver.

Today, during my first Lisboa TR run I’ve experienced the same problem.
Please see the images mounted on the attached PDF file.
From an initial sailed CC = 98.40º, some seconds after activating the “*” button the CC went to 278.40º without touching anything, namely the screen’s phone.

Nuisance.

Hi everyone and sorry for not looking into the forum for some time.

Just found out about the ZigZag race problem. It was caused by "bad/unexpected" data from the server where both the last waypoints had the same ordering number and that caused the app to drop the last one. I will change the app so it can handle simple mistakes like that in the future.

JB: About the switch of the buttons I think it's a good idea so if no one objects I will do that in the next release. About the "graphical tool" not working in the bora bore race. I wasn't in that race so I didn't see it and I have no idea why it happened. I guess I will have to look out for similar problems in the future.

Dear Zappe

The problem I reported for the Beru to Bora-Bora race is the same as the one we are having now on Hawai race. Pls login with the app and try to get wind info with the graphical tool.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!

Red Eye - Round White Island 2025

We remain in New Zealand for our second “Red Eye Special” and another IRL Kiwi classic - the Round White Island! IRL still “currently on hiatus” following the island’s eruption of 2019, this race was last raced on SOL in 2020. It’s about 300nm there - out the Hauraki Gulf and south down to the island in the Bay of Plenty - and back to Auckland. This year we’ll be racing in our ever-popular take on the TP-52. Hau tika!

Created by MustangMark in 2014 this is a “Pick Your Own Course” round the island, approximately 20nm in our First 27. Expect winds to be light and variable; we are in the Tropics.

Africa by Sea - Tangier to Abidjan


Whatever about pharaoh Necho II’s Phoenician expedition of the 7th C BCE, the Carthaginian Hanno the Navigator with more certainty sailed south from Tangier to explore the West African coast two centuries later, but how far he got is a matter of more conjecture. However, if he did the 2300nm to today’s Ivory Coast he would have found little there other than good shelter in the vast lagoons behind the dunes, much the same as today, excepting the highly industrialized port of Abidjan. Not a great haven for a stop-over but let’s take the 90ft Monohull anyway.

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
