    Hi 47box.
    I think this is already the case of both servers.
    For DC Checker The IP adress is usually
    192.168.1.10
    Port 5010 (which port you can edit).
    Idem for Brainaid's toolbox NMEA server.

    Il you are interested I have developped a PHP script which scan NMEA and AIS sentences from the Brainaid's servers and push them in a file (json data format).

    Re: Getting TWA and TWS of "friends" boats.
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi everybody (and Koppyer / Kipper of course)
    I need clarification about grib restitution for SOL.
    1) Are the U and V components of Grib files from DCChecker's SOLGribXml folder in m/s or in knots ?
    I think they are in m/s.

    2) The U and V values are the TWS components, with U the vertical component and V the horizontal one
    like in the Sol'd blog
    https://daysailer.wordpress.com/2011/02/20/how-to-calculate-tws-and-twd-from-grib-components/

    That's right ?

    Re: Getting TWA and TWS of "friends" boats.
    Board » Technical Support
    OK.

    I have made the modification :

    --- Implemented ----
    1) Get the list of active races

    2) The user select one

    3) Login with "sol" account
    -> return a valid token

    4) Get the boat list and position
    -> conversion to KML / KMZ map

    5) Archive : List of all KMZ files sorted by race and date.

    6) the TWA set up the type of sail :
    TWA <= 40° -> Jib
    40° <= TWA < 110° -> Genois
    110° < TWA <= 140° -> Gennaker
    140° < TWA -> Spinnaker

    7) TWA & TWS act on boat roll : more wind, more roll

    8) And last but not least, added new collada files for trimaran

    --- Implemented ----


    Future improvements

    9) Select which boats to display


    Attached zip: The updated version of 2017/03/25.
    Correction of fews bugs and many improvements like new models, Grib, Polars and tour.

    The english (and french) beta versions are here: http://voilevirtuelle.free.fr/SailOnLine/ge/

    BUT... the Free.fr server does'nt allow to retrive data from an another server so you can't use directly these scripts.

    You have to download them and set up your own local webserver.

    If Solfan web site (or Kroppyer's one) could hosts this code (after extensive testing and maybe few improvements, any SOLers could directly generate and download his own KML / KMZ map of the Sol fleet.

    My soft is ready (beta version)

    BTW I have found strange COG values :
    <cog>0.798365726218</cog>

    I think this is a radian value. Is'nt ?

    All the boats are going south this night on NSSANZ; I get :
    <cog>3.17281659391</cog>
    After conversion
    COG radian: 3.17281659391
    COG degree: 171.88733853925
    The right direction.

    I have not yet implemented TWA / TWS nor the sail selection.

    I have seen where DC Checker gets polars and gribs .
    Some more tests and I'll publish the beta version on my server.

    Thanx. If course I know (and use) DC Checker.

    I am implementing the direct access to Sol server. It will more effective than to depend on NMEA sentences which require un local server.

    I hope that the beta version will be on line this evening or tomorrow.

    I'll use my own server, but if you think that it would be better to use a SOLFan one, I can FTP the sources (PHP) (Creative commons / GNU licence of course)

    Thanx Kroppyer Kipper,
    This piece of code works "à la perfection" :).
    But this is only hull color. So I think the best will be to publish a form to allow Sollers to choose their sails.

    BTW is it a mean to get old messages from race 1018 chat because I have missed the comments about my pictures.

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

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 this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

Lake Ladoga Ice Race


For our second race of the 2025 Ice Yachting series, we shall risk disturbing another sect of monks, these of the Orthodox persuasion rather than Buddhist. Good ice is often found in remote places, and remoteness breeds contemplation, and Valaam Island at 61.3N in the north east corner of Lake Ladogo is as remote as it gets. Surrounded by pristine ice in winter, we find there one of the great monasteries of Russian Orthodoxy. So, get your visa’s, fly to St Petersburg, take the N-121 north to Vladimirovka, and get your DN-skates on for another no-PL monk-minding race, this time of 110nm in length, out around Valaam, then Derevnya, to finish near Berezova.

Walyalup Sprint 2025


Once upon a time, aboriginal legend has it, the country of the Whadjuk people extended west from the present day Fremantle shoreline out to Rottnest island, but Walyalup as they called it was lost to the sea, and this sprint takes you across those inundated lands, round reefs and across shoals, 25nm in a Dufour 34. For the Walyalup, March fell in Bunuru, the hottest season of the year, which meant living near the water. Expect hot easterly winds, and cooling afternoon sea breezes with little to no rain. Perfect weather for a sail.

The adventure continues as we embark on the second leg of the RWW series, racing from Tristan da Cunha to the remote and uninhabited Coronation Island, NO, Elephant Island.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Dondra to Toamasina


Above you see a stratospheric balloon, that if only we had gribs at that altitude would get blasted along quite rapidly and predictably. Alas we just have our SOL balloon that sails rather lower to the sea and that we have crossed the Atlantic in, west to east, last year for the first time in the southern hemisphere. So much fun was had by all, that this year we will attempt the Indian Ocean, but in four legs. Another great piece of fiction, the voyages of Sinbad By Balloon not magic carpet, although you may need a bit of magic to make any progress at times. Pack your wicker basket full for your first leg of at least 2300nm from Sri Lanka to Madagascar; it’s not a picnic hamper, you could be in the air for longer than you hoped!
