Is it possible to email other boats directly rather than use the open chat line?

I don't think it is possible at present but that would be a great feature if it could be implemented.

At the moment this is not possible, we are trying to get a community site up with such options.
There is also the privacy issue of email.
A lot of us are on facebook as well and there is a Sailonline group there too. Until we have a own system up this might be a good way to go.
I am a ex-admin of SOL who joins in from time to time.

Thanks for reply, I understand the privacy issues. I was curious that in our profiles it says our email addresses will be be shown to all users unless we leave the email address field blank. So at this time it is not possible to see other user's email addresses?

If I click on your name in the left-hand column, your user profile appears. There your e-mail address is shown.

Cheers,
Philip (aboard Schakel)

To clarify: In the user profile an email is only shown for users that have entered a "public email" in their profile.

OK thanks Philip and Kalle. So the email addresses will be visible if the person has been on the forum and chooses to be public but the address is not available via the SYC member ranking list.

Thessaloniki to Port Said 2026

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series.

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
