    Board » General Discussion
    To the Sailonline team,

    Great addition with the extended predicter tool. Thank You to all.
    When you use many DC's, would it be possible when you place your computer mouse to highlight one DC, that a dot appears on your predicted course so you can locate the DC on the map?

    Thank you guys.

    Team, the info (map of the race) of the A3 2020 leg 3 loaded on the web page is not correct. It should be changed.
    Thank you for your dedication.

    Morning team and again well done.
    A suggestion for the html client:
    Could we have a toggle button on the screen that removes all tracks except the official tracks. In some instances (i.e multiple tours, or passing by or around the same locations) there are too many tracks on the screen and it gets confusing when playing on a small media.

    Just a suggestion.

    Bon vent

    Guys, so far it works well. Thank you for your time and patience.

    As an improvement, could it be possible when you set a DC, that the predictors (both) starting at DC point are shown on the map?

    Regards from Altair

    To whom it may concern,

    Had to renew my membership at the last minute today on 31/01/2020 and discovered afterward that I am not listed as SYC member anymore. Will I regain the membership? Will my sailing history be restored.

    Thanks

    Team,

    Nice job and Thank you.
    Few points before reading all the inputs on the new client and maybe you already responded but I can't find it in the chat.
    1- Chats are not saved on the computer. So we loose earlier inputs.
    2- Cannot scroll down the list of boats in the ranking tab.
    3- With regards to knobs allowing to change the map display, if we had knobs that could allow us to toggle between wind arrows to wind TWA/TWS from the map screen without having to go to settings each time.

    Note that all points above are valid from the computer or the tablet I use.

    Voila.
    Great job you guys are doing.
    Paul

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
