Hej SKOVSER.

Of course.
You will find a link to "brainaids site" via "Links" on Sailonline's homepage.
On "brainaids site" choose "Sailonline Toolbox".
In the toolbox you log in with your sailonline login and choose the race you want.
This is where you get the weather gribs, the polars and other stuff.
Click on "Navigation" and then click on the link in blue writing. This will download the NMEA Proxy for YOUR boat.
Click on the downloaded file (uses Java), fill in your password and click on "Login".
Now you only need to click on "Start" and you are up and running.

Hope this helps. :-))

If you need further assistance I can be reached on SKYPE as finn0703

Thanks a lot Bimmer,
I got it to work with Firefox. I tried with Chrome a number of times, but failed.
Probably because of Java not running on new Chrome.

Thanks again :)

Viva Bimmer.

The GRIB file can be any format qT reads.
The "numbers" are "TWS" on the nodes of the GRIB, something you get tweaking the menu called with the "windsock" icon.

Meanwhile, I was looking the new OR and ... look to the attached pic.

Nice jump!
Sail Fair.

Hello Bimmer, everything works great on qtvlm until I get to the NMEA proxy part. The saved file has a IE symbol next to it and when I click on it it comes up with options open or save and thats as far as I can get.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi Irish Rover.
Are you using IE as your standard browser?
What happens if you click "Open"?

Bimmer.

Feel free to contact me on Skype (finn0703)

I use Firefox as standard, when I click open it creates another line with open or save options as well and keeps repeating this action if I click open or save.
I'm not very computer savvy so it's a bit frustrating!

Do you have Java on your machine? Otherwise go to Java and download it.

Please download Skype and call me. We can fix it in 10 minutes :-)

Andaman Islands PYOC 2025


The Andaman Islands are an archipelago, made up of 200 islands, in the northeastern Indian Ocean. Together with the Nicobar Islands to their south, the Andamans serve as a maritime boundary between the Bay of Bengal to the west and the Andaman Sea to the east. These waters will be the theater of our next 240nm race in the ARCH 2025 series. Which one you choose depends only on you, i.e. your Elan 410 sport will leave the Andaman Islands on the starboard or port side.

Isla San Lorenzo RTI 2025


SOL’s SRC (Sailonline Race Committee) has taken us to some unusual places in the past, and San Lorenzo Island off Lima’s Callao peninsula is definitely another one. Housing a naval base and a penal institution, no vessel is allowed within 300m of its shores. Also, with no sources of potable water, it is a matter of debate whether it is an island at all, and not just a large rock. So, whatever you do, don’t be tempted to BBQ; you’ll be arrested and go thirsty! We return for the first time since 2018 to race thirteen potentially unlucky miles in J-30s; have fun!!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
