	But Inco don't you admit in general mark rounding times are closer to reality compared to DTG? Would like that if not tricky to implement..

	Is it possible to have a seperate count down timer to next race placed on each Race listed? Now that we have several races posted at once and only one count down timer, it is getting a little difficult to know which race is starting when, especially for us Folk in a different time zone.

	@Alan: good idea, but I do not regard it as urgent as the start date & time are indicated for each race on the front page. @Smo: Waypoint passing times would certainly be a nice addition. But I suspect that it is not so easy to implement. Generally, I see a need to substantially upgrade the race leaderboard, but that is a wider project that I do not see happening soon. Keep in mind: there are 10 times more good suggestions than available development time. We constantly need to think about priorities. The race committee already suggested a number of development priorities to Jakob and Kalle in January. There is another project running within the race commitee (someone who doe not want to be named is working hard on that) to bring order and establish priorities among the many good suggestions on this thread and elsewhere. That will make it possible to deliver the most value out of the available development time. Regards, Francois

	Probably been mentioned a few times before. Is it possible to have the dividers tool be able to make more than one course? This would be a great enhancement. Or be even able to save a plotted track? Keep up the great work Team SOL Cheers

	UC, what I do is to plot another course in a second tab (or sometimes even antoher windows, as I have two monitors so I can put them side by side). The ability to save a plotted course is something I've requested as well. HTH, HAND, Philip

Sailonline is delighted to offer our sailors a 'reversed' Atlantic ocean race.

It is the July edition of this year's Ocean Championship. Our boat is the OD_65v3.

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.
