Why is there no map for leg 4 in Sailplanner? SP Phillipines is not complete in the nothern part.

So far during practise I've used the map for the Phillipines. I've haven't yet checked if there are maps for the East China and Yellow seas.

We will fix a proper Sailplanner area for leg 4 :-)

Thanks, Jacob.
I decided to give Sailplanner a first try furing this practise and I found it kinda fun. Aren't the coordinate systems in Sailplanner and the client the same, DMS DD respectively?

coordinate system is the same. Sailplanner accepts almost any format of input, you can use dd.ddd or dd'mm etc as you like :-)

Jakob, I just downloaded Sailplanner. It shows my boat but it's not anywhere near the position I'm in Sailonlin.org. Will it work at the start of leg 4 or what? Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I'm no expert, but you can drag your boat manually anywhere. While the orientation of the boat doesn't change, the boats polar butterfly changes according to the wind. Set a couple of points with the blue button and then hit the green one to get a route calculation. Points can be moved later for recalculation.

Clarification: There is no built-in coupling between SOL and Sailplanner.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
