2018-02-10 00:09:01 - Sol/Brainaid/Expedition
Coming back to Expedition (and SoL, to be fair) and after a few years away, and I cannot figure out how to connect Brainaid's NMEA to Expedition. I have no issues with QTVLM. Can someone put me out of my misery please?

I do not have expedition.
But maybe this works?
In Expedition use the settings menu to select Instruments->Number of network connections. Then add a connection. Now in the Instruments->Serial and Network Ports you can choose TCP client and configure for ip-fill in address shown in brainaids nmea proxy port 5010

found in http://expedition.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=228

(I tried it in unlicenced expedition version but got message that could not be done in unlicensed etc.)

I seem to be having a similar problem. I can see the NMEA proxy tab and I am using the 192.168.0.3 IP and the 5010 port, but no data is showing on EXP. any ideas?

Try always using 127.0.0.1 in Expedition no matter what the brainaid proxy gives you. And port 5010, yes.

Did anybody figure out how this worked? Just curious. Just did my first SOL race but couldn't figure out how to connect NMEA data.

My settings (that aren't working)

Instrument: NMEA 0183
Connection: TCP Client
Address: 127.0.0.1
Port: 5010

Command: Inserted brainaid link

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Haida Gwaii 2024


We will end the second quarter of the ARCH competition with a 390nm race around the Haida Gwaii islands (literally "Islands of the Haida people"), also known as the Queen Charlotte Islands. This is an archipelago located on the northern Pacific coast of Canada. In SOL, we last raced on this route in 2012 and few people remember what happened there. Prepare your Riptide 50 well, it's going to be a lot of fun.

Newport Bermuda Race 2024


The 636-mile biennial Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet Race and the Sydney to Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. Founded in 1906, this 53rd running of the Bermuda Race can again also be participated in online.
Entries are invited for one of the four divisions:
Double-Handed Division:
Jeanneau Sun Fast 3600
St. David's Lighthouse Division:
Santa Cruz 52
Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division:
Judel Vrolijk 62
Finisterre Division:
Riptide 50
Details for each yacht are available in the ‘Particulars’ links below. As in real life, you can only sail one boat in one division, so choose your virtual yacht carefully, and because of the unusual (for SOL) 4-division nature of the event, please note results will not count towards any Sailonline rankings.
