	In the interim between this new client first appearing, being taken down, and now replaced and (it seems) accessible to all, I added map zoom on mouse wheel. You can also hold SHIFT to zoom faster... I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

	Seems like Shift Key + mouse wheel goes backwards and forwards in browsing history (in both IE and Firefox) by default. At least if you have zoomed out (and got back to your home page) you can zoom in again to get to SOL... Only other comment - Mind blowingly good look and feel to the application.. excellent.. amazing.. --- Last Edited by ybw_mjm at 2012-02-17 22:43:47 ---

	I just hook into the Flash support for mouse wheel, so things may vary depending on browser - I don't have all browsers to test on I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

	One thing I may have forgotten to mention about the new client: The mouse coord information at map top right is now automatically updated. So, if you use the arrow keys to move the weather slider, you can 'park' the mouse at some point and the data will update as the slider moves It also updates every time new data is received for your boat - so the distance and bearing values will change. This can be quite handy when approaching a mark or headland to round, as you can 'park' the mouse over the location of manoeuvre and see the distance counting down with each boat update...

	It is working fine for me in IE8... Im not sure what to suggest other than a cache purge and reload I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

	cheers AG, got home logged in and no problems, except for seeing where i am. perhaps its saying i shouldn't be doing it at work. cleared the cache but it didn't ask for a reload, will have another play tomorrow

	Your work place could have some net restrictions or even block Flash applications altogether I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

The KER 40 was introduced to SOL in 2016 by SOLer psail, and the Sol-KER was a welcome addition to SOL’s fleet of 40- footers, as it was to the IRL Ker fleet of eponymous - like KERonimo, KukuKERchu and Ice BreaKER.
