A new version of AGL is here called AGL14_6_1_update.zip.This fixes the map loading problem with 14.6.0. Note that this is an update and is to be installed according to the update instructions in the manual.
Kipper, I am not the most computer literate 84 yr old! Originally I had assistance loading AGL from our much missed late SOLer Bimmer. I confess that I have not been confident enough to keep up to date with the patches and I am still using AGL Version 14/2/9 on Windows 10. I would like to get up to date. I have User Manual 14.2.3. which describes the first installation and then updates. Rather than downloading the multiple patches I have missed what would be the steps to replacing my version with the latest version and then keeping up to date with the patches?
I hope that this request does not exasperate you too much! TX for any kind assistance you may render. TX for creating this super program. jgambles@rogers.com.
Kipper, I have downloaded the 14.6.0 AGL Manual. What I am worried about is corrupting the existing files that allow me to continue using Version 14.2.9 if I follow the First Time instructions in order to Update to the latest version. I am assuming that there is some modification required in the First Time instructions when you are already using AGL. TX again.

Skipping so many updates does mean you really need to do a new install. But you can overwrite the old install, if you don't want to make a new location.

This is what I suggest you do.
1.Create a new folder for the new version.
2. Download the AGL14_5_9_full.zip and unzip it into your new location.
2. Download AGL14_6_1_update.zip and unzip that into the new location.
3. Edit the environment variables (or batch files and run them) to point to the new location and version.
4. You should be able to run AG_pause.bat to make sure it is working and you've set the locations correctly.

If you are not happy, you can simply point back to the old version and old location.

Red Eye - Bimini Beach Run 2025

This time of year, already it is balmy in the Bahamas and the Biminis, if ever it is not; so let’s try and get some “Red Eye” enjoying the fine weather and a warm night, racing our appropriately luxurious and bombastic Gunboat 90, as always our craft of choice for this 250nm beach-running, island-hopping SOL classic through this multihull mecca!

Africa by Sea - Abidjan to Swakopmund


Our exploration of Africa by Sea continues. Next, it’s off to Swakopmund, on the water’s edge of the Kalahari desert. It’s a wind-blasted coast, and a venue of choice for those seeking to set wind-powered speed records. More likely than not, we’ll have to beat into it in our Steinlager II, to finally find some shelter behind the walls of Platz am Meer where there is a marina of sorts. Only 2200nm!

Newport to Annapolis 2025


The Newport to Annapolis race, first held in 1947, is one of the most historic and well-known US East Coast blue water races. Linking two seaports dating from the US nation's birth, Annapolis and Newport, the race contrasts the country's largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. Since 1969, the route has run from Annapolis through the Chesapeake Bay to Newport. The SOLers will sail 470nm in their Carkeek40s in the original direction from Newport to Annapolis, including the Chesapeake, which is such a daunting challenge that the 1997–98 Whitbread Round the World Race for the Volvo Trophy added it to the course, as did the Volvo Ocean Race in 2002 and 2006.

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!
