	Ok, one solutions is of course to support us by joining SYC - with the bonus that the SYC ad completely disappears =)

	Hi Kalle As a SYC member myself, I have a problem with ur reply to Bugsie re SYC advert on polar screen, when u said quote to solve the problem join SYC, this is not in the best interest of the Club or SOL, as they have one member of the family as a SYC member, an no restrictions to viewing polars, yet the other has the join SYC logo across the polars, are we going down the track of the money hungrey VOR game sites or keep this as pure an honest as the best Virtual Sailing Site Regards Aussie Col

	Hi, it was meant as a joke - however you must also agree that it also was a good workaround to the problem I have made some changes in the drawing code which should further improve the placement of the ad on small screen. However, below a certain size the banner will still partially cover the polar. That is a trade-off - if we would decrease the polar size below that limit it would be unreadable for that reason. I welcome more input in this issue. If anyone also have a better way to promote SYC I am also listening - the banner just seemed like a good idea. We do put in quite an effort in this project (a lot of our own money and time), so SYC memberships are crucial for the long term survival and development of SOL. We are very happy and thankful for all the people who has made the decision to support us via SYC - I cannot thank you enough.

	Kalle, I think the flash interface is very good now. But I still miss one utility from the old client. The possibility to progress the wind forecast for 3 hours with arrow-keys and for 6 or 12 hours with page-down/up-keys. I hope it is possible to fix that too?

	Sambal: It might not have the correct "response", but if you first click on the weather time "marker", you can then change time with left and right arrow keys.

Haida Gwaii 2024

We will end the second quarter of the ARCH competition with a 390nm race around the Haida Gwaii islands (literally "Islands of the Haida people"), also known as the Queen Charlotte Islands. This is an archipelago located on the northern Pacific coast of Canada. In SOL, we last raced on this route in 2012 and few people remember what happened there. Prepare your Riptide 50 well, it's going to be a lot of fun.

Newport Bermuda Race 2024

The 636-mile biennial Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet Race and the Sydney to Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. Founded in 1906, this 53rd running of the Bermuda Race can again also be participated in online.
Entries are invited for one of the four divisions:
Double-Handed Division:
Jeanneau Sun Fast 3600
St. David's Lighthouse Division:
Santa Cruz 52
Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division:
Judel Vrolijk 62
Finisterre Division:
Riptide 50
Details for each yacht are available in the ‘Particulars’ links below. As in real life, you can only sail one boat in one division, so choose your virtual yacht carefully, and because of the unusual (for SOL) 4-division nature of the event, please note results will not count towards any Sailonline rankings.
