    Help with polars ( with help of brainaid toolbox)
    Board » Technical Discussion
    Hi every body,

    I am quite new in SOL and real sailing. I started using SOL as a way to practice with planing routes, but I must confess that I am really exited with the game.

    I would like to calculate better the SOG in SOL to evaluate the best routes. Using the steer tool is easy to see in the polar tool the SOG when calculating the current turn. But when I want to find the SOG in other part of the map is when I don't really know how to do it.

    As far as I have seen, with the polars tool in SOL you are using TWA and TWS. I have seen in http://sol.brainaid.de/sailonline/toolbox/ a .csv file with a table with more TWA and TWS for a given boat than the provided in SOL (helpful links/Boat polars). My problem is that not always there is a TWA and TWS that is calculated in this file (for example TWA = 55.5, TSP = 4.8, SOG = ??). Do you know how can I calculate the SOG (for SOL) given TWA and TWS?

    Thank you so much!!

Vendee Home - Cape Horn to Olon 2025

Welcome to our 2025 Ocean Race Championships starting off with the classic 6900nm drag race from Cape Horn back to the coast of Brittany leading or following the boats of the Vendee Globe fleet. A new polar from the board of the BNH Design Partnership is being made available to you for this one, in the hope that aboard her you too will be able to cover 600nm in a day when the conditions are right! It's winter outside, so like the IRL sailors, enjoy and stay inside!

AGage TIMED 100 Race 2025

SOL's gift to the memory of AGagewas a yearlong series of races circumnavigating Australia. This 100 nm race takes place in the St. Vincent Gulf off Adelaide to mark 12 years since the too-sudden end to the life of this remarkable SOLer. These were Aaron's home waters - he was a total competitor so... race to win! Please take the time to read the many tributes left in his memory. This is a TIMED race, so you may RE-REGISTER HERE to try again, after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.

Tasman Double 2024 - Hobart to Sydney

The echoes of New Year's Eve parties have already faded away. The world welcomed the new 2025 and said goodbye to the old 2024. Still silently reflecting on what the next days will bring. For us and our Super Maxi 100 V2, it's time to return to Sydney, again waiting for us 625 NM of difficult sailing through the always demanding waters of the Tasman Sea. So goodbye Hobart, we will come back here again to celebrate another new year 2026 together. In the meantime, Happy New Year 2025!!!
