    vida .... "One-eyed"

    Arrr, One-eyed, the name be granted and feared already! With a single gaze sharper than a cutlass, ye'll strike terror from port to port. Keep yer good eye on the prize, and may the seas bend to yer will, ye scurvy legend!

    So, this race is a dash between the starting point and the finish line, except the finish line is 21,600 nautical miles long (give or take), as opposite to the normal two miles.

    Looks like a fantastic idea.

    Pop-up window size
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi Kipper,

    Is there a way to reduce the size of the "AutoGrib" pop-up window? The window that pops up after we double click AG14.bat.

    I am on a small 11" laptop and since the AutoGrib pop up wind does not have a side scroll slider I cannot see and cannot click on "Apply". The pop up window takes over the whole monitor. Yes, I can adjust the margins with my mouse but there is no way to make the bottom buttons to show up.

    I understand this may be a MS-Windows question, but I looked all over the internet and could not find the solution.

    Is there any sort of flag codded in AGL that specify the size of the pop-up window that can be edited?

    Thank you for any assistance.
    Attached is a screenshot for reference.
    Cheers,

    Hi Kipper1258,

    Is there a way to reduce the size of the "AutoGrib" pop up window?

    I am using a small 11" laptop and cannot use AGL14 because the "AutoGrib" pop-up window is too big, and I am not able to see and click the "Apply" button. The window doesn't have a side scroll bar.

    I searched the internet for a solution, since this maybe a MS-Windows question, but could not find it.

    Perhaps there is some sort of flag coded in AGL that specify the size of the pop up window. If so, I could edit that flag if I knew where to find it.

    Please I appreciate any assistance.

    Thanks.

    Hi Kipper,
    I am trying to install AGL14 and when I run "AG14_pause.bat" it says "The system cannot find the path specified"
    I've checked several times the paths and the seam to be correct.
    I added scream shots of the paths and the DOS scream with the error message.

    Please and guidance will be appreciated. Thank you.

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

San Diego Islands Race 2026


Sailonline is proud to once again partner with the San Diego Yacht Club for the annual Islands Race! This iconic offshore challenge spans approximately 140 nautical miles, starting in Long Beach, rounding the Catalina Islands, and finishing in San Diego. Shifting coastal winds and tactical island roundings will test every sailor’s judgment and nerve.

This year, our SOLers will race the Ker 40, a proven high-performance design by Jason Ker and built by McConaghy Boats. Fast, responsive, and demanding, the Ker 40 rewards precision and smart strategy. The competition will be tight. Every decision will count. See you on the start line!

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.
