    https://sailonline.org/wiki/show/AboutSailonline/ mentions "General Queries: Emails to:admin@sailonline.org".

    Same guest here. I just noticed the admin@sailonline.org address and emailed them about this. That's probably a better avenue than this forum since I won't be notified of replies to this forum.

    I went to https://sailonline.org/community/accounts/register/ to create an account, entered my email, and clicked the button and got "The server returned an error. If this problem persists please contact the administrators.". I tried several times with the same result. I tried both Firefox and Chrome (both mac).

    ... guest is intended as a spectator. As such the message "Now login with our guest account to view currently running races" is accurate, and guest being invisible is desired.
    ...
    Thank you for your eloquent answer.
    So log-in as sol is a better way to experience and view all the possibilities of your sailing and navigation simulation then doing so as guest.

    I think SOL-management does not like to have <guest> or <sol> active in a race. And even during practice-sailing <guest> is invisible.

    In the beginning years of sailonline it was always fun chasing <sol> the very moment the race was open for registration. When practice-sailing started this was no longer done.

    When the race was started <sol> could be sailed as a community boat. Skippers did not know each other; just fun of not knowing what the next move would be.

    All of a sudden <sol> could not chat any more. I know why that was done; why after years <sol> is still banned from chat I do not understand.

    <sol> and <guest> are positioned from race-start as -1 or 9999. OK. But why did sol-management take away all things that made navigating possible?

    <guest> is still not visible/usable during practice-racing.

    Seems this forum is not read/maintained by anyone who could change something in the working of Sail On Line. At least <guest> is still not navigable during practice racing.

    Time to change this welcome message?

    Nothing to enjoy. Guest boat invisible. No steer.

    I logged in to Silverrudder 2022 sep 13, 16:29 as guest.
    Is there a boat named guest?

    I did not see anything.
    I could not steer
    I could not enter a course

    2nd thought: will all be right when no longer practice-racing??

    Disappointed guest.

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!
