    Hi jf44,

    Thank you for your reply.
    I got the sentences from ComCap using the IP adress you post and is usually working fine now.
    Due my fault (in ComCap settings) I was not recieving the sentences.
    If possible to you send me your PHP program I will be apreciate. The MSSQL database has a entrie for json data file. Even ComCap will work just for 60min and desconect (as free software) to test it.

    my email is : mariorbr@hotmail.com

    If you host your PHP program let me know and I will go and download it.

    Thank you.

  • NMEA server data TCP/IP?
    Board » Technical Discussion
    Hi Kroppyer,

    I´m trying to populate a database (MSSQL) with NMEA sentence.
    Usually I´m using a ComCap Data Capture Utility designed to capture data received on PC RS232 serial communications ports or using network TCP/IP and UDP streams. (http://www.magsys.co.uk/comcap/)

    I´m needing a remote IP Adress/Host and IP Port to get the NMEA sentences. Is it possible to have it from the DC_checker Server or Branaid Server?
    Thanks in advance.

    I also have been playing in beta a while and I had the same feeling as you kroppyer. The controls was not good as I imagined. But in my opinion it was not ready to go.I believe it was developing something more faithful (I hope). Moving around the cockpit was a bad too in terms of facility (mouse and keyboard control). The map to get a position was still not well defined (zoom in and zoom out I means).

    " usability might have improved enough to be able to focus on sailing rather than messing with the controls " ... that what I´m expecting too.

    The point we can have a crew and sail in the same boat which each one can have control of something is really nice and other things like real weather around the world.

    Let see what will come, but at least it is looking come something really nice as simulator. I´ve got early access. I´m really wainting for.

    Hi maitai,

    I change from "VLM mode" to "Real Mode" and set the NMEA>TCP Server settings. I did not get the instruments working, and boat online position as well.
    I got some infomations from this website:

    https://daysailer.wordpress.com/2016/01/03/how-to-connect-qtvlm-and-bluewater-racing-to-the-nmea-proxy/

    but look like it´s not more applicable.
    I saw some pictures from other Sailor using GPS into the qtVlm and it was looking like running well.

    I´ll keeping trying.
    Any other help will be apreciate. Thkans
  • qtVlm & brainaids NMEA proxy
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi,

    I´ve been trying to load boats data and position into qtVLM using the brainaid proxy ( http://sol.brainaid.de/sailonline/toolbox/NMEAproxy.jnlp?race=1025&boat=47box).
    The procedures I did was:
    1)Load the braiaid NMEA proxy (that was "ok").
    2)Into qtVlm I went to "VLM mode".
    3)qtVlm > Configuration > ...
    > "Conecting using a proxy".
    >Proxy type: "System default proxy"
    >Proxy Server (from brainaid toolbox): http://sol.brainaid.de/sailonline/toolbox/NMEAproxy.jnlp?race=1025&boat=47box
    >Port Number: 5010
    > User & Password as required.

    After these settings I restart the qtVlm and look like the conection has been established.

    I could not see after established the connection, the boats and datas inside the MAP.

    Is it possible to have boats visualisation online on qtVLM? Someone can help the procedure or point me somewhere to have the info? Thank you.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Samoa to Hawaii


The second race of our new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, takes us northward again up the Pacific Ocean, now from Samoa at 13.5 degrees South, across the Equator to Hawaii, famed for its breaking surf and active volcanoes, on the edge of the Tropic of Cancer at 19.5 degrees North. It’s 2300nm, so we’ll take our very steady Steinlager II. Race #1982

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.
