2012-03-05 15:07:58 - Logging in as SOL
I have looked all over the site and can find no way of logging in as SOL so that I may see finishes of the "practice racing". Whenever I try, I am already logged in as 'Rod', and can find no place to log in as anybody else.
It says I can log in as 'guest' as well as 'SOL', but I can find no place to do that either.
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

Thnx. Only wanted it as a technique for viewing the finishes of practice races. I am reaching the conclusion that the only way to get an accurate finish order is to take a screen shot just prior to the finish of #1 boat, and then measure the distance of each finisher from the line, but this will work only if all the boats are on the same course...and therefore the same speed.
Could the programming be extended to give a special client (or whatever) just for the practice races where the number of boats is usually less than 25. A one second time interval would be equally nice with all racers moving at the same time.
I realize that SOL is intended for ocean racing, BUT it is being used regularly for these 'practice' in-port races, before the main event starts.
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.

Best to use another browser. If you normally use FireFox, or Internet Explorer, or chrome...use another to log in as sol.
There are several, I normally use chrome, so when I want to log in as sol or guest, I open IE or FF or Opera. All are free and an easy download.
This way you can keep your log in in your usual browser, and view any race as sol or guest.

Roma per Tutti 2026


Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!

Welcome to yet another all-new route. This next race is part of our Ocean Championship as well as the ROW series. Falklands to Tasmania, is like last year's island to island. It’s one of the longer ones 6400nm, more than half way around the world (and the Antarctica). It starts the 2026 OCQ2, and will be sailed in our Steinlager 2, contrary to prior notice.
