It's just the client itself that is beta, to let you know it is newly developed and isn't throughly tested yet.

I don't like sailing with the flash client.

What I miss from the old client is:
- Big map window
- Resizeable polar window
- Tool to draw courses
- Different colours for different boats
- Boat traces
- Different blue colours depending on wind

Thanks for the feedback. We simply need to go for a web-based client to be compatible with fire-walls etc. We will work as hard as we can with getting most of the stuff you require into the client.

How is this allocated? Random? Entry Order?

Are colours reallocated next time one logs on?
If it breaks, it's not strong enough!

2008-11-11 22:24:53 - Re: Beta Wind Arrow Density
I think there are too many arrows at the moment and that the density of arrows does not change when zoomimg in or out. Perhaps a wind density slide scale could be good improvement, or a tab with set of preferences to turn off/on different elements.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!
