    Hi Bimmer,

    What is the .vmg files? And how do I open those files?

    I know that the .csv files are used by Qt, but I don't know what the .vmg are used for.

    Thanks,
    Antonio

    Boat Info
    Board » General Discussion
    I just noticed that we now can get a boat info with a profile, a picture, the polar AND a list of all the races the boat was used here on SOL. All this summarized on a single page PDF.
    How clever, and interesting information to have.
    To whoever came up with this idea;
    Thank You !

    One of the beauty of SOL is it's simplicity. These rules are very simple to understand and simple to follow.
    Well done.
    Thank you all involved in running this great platform.

    Hi IANDOG,

    During practice the finish line does NOT stop your boat.

    Newport to Bermuda Race

    We have sailed this traditional race twice on SOL with the last one just finished.
    I am sure it was a painful experience for the ones caught by the blue arrows, the so called Bermuda High.

    For some it was a delightful race, but I am sure that for everyone it was an intrigue and demanding experience.

    The real life Bermuda Race is sailed every two years, next on to be in 2016. Over the many years of existence, there was fast runs, very fast runs, slow runs and painful runs but always very interesting.

    I would like respectfully ask the Sailonline Race Committee to consider including this race on our racing calendar, once every two years, always starting on the 3rd Friday of June.

    Thank you very much,

    I would like to thank all podium sailors who take time to write race reports.
    I don't remember when this trend started, but it is fascinating and instructive feedback reading.

    Thanks mates,

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
