    Re: SOL RULES OF RACING
    Board » Flag Officers » Rules and Decisions
    I agree with other "posters".. :-)
    This proposal is simple, logical and easy to understand and follow.
    I too am glad to see the proposals re:Team boats.
    Therefore I agree that they should be adopted as soon as is reasonably possible.
    Good work guys!

    I just started experiencing this issue running through Internet Explorer 9 and a wired internet (100Mb) connection in the UK. Tried the Beta site and it looked to be ok but could not load the latest SWR2014-2 race from there to know if it was race specific..
    I have now accessed the race and my boat using Chrome as the browser so not a big issue per se but thought I'd add the information to the thread in case it helps anyone...
    Cheers

    My yacht won't sail!!!
    Board » Technical Support
    HI,
    Just started Leg 9 and was mid fleet. Wanted to adjust my course so went back to the site, and went to race page to find boat head to wind. Have reset a number of times, and despite the heading showing as corrected, it then defaults within minutes to head to wind!!!!

    HELP!!! I've gone from around 340th to 550th as I type this!!!!

    That's the same for me too! It's surprisingly confusing not being able to see my own or other's tracks.... Suddenly they just aren't there.
    Any thoughts?

    Incidentally, when I asked about resolution, I meant resolution of the chart (i.e. how accurate it is), not the resolution (or solution) of any issue....

    Resolution or bug?
    Board » Technical Support
    Closing on the finish of the Antwerp to Belfast race, I set a COMPASS course to cross the finish line approx one third of the way in from the northern end of the line. Once logged with the server, projected track showed straight through where I wanted it to be, so I went off to do some chores. When I came back, my boat had shot straight past the northern end of the line and hit the docks in Belfast!! It's not a big issue per se, I was lying about 240th and had made minor errors of my own so I wasn't likely to win, but as this is a time on distance race, it might have made a difference and would certainly have done had I been closer to the front!!
    Any thoughts?

Natuna Sea Race 2026


At 4.0N 108.2E lies the island of Natuna Besar, Great Natuna, surrounded by at least 154 islands, of which 127 uninhabited, Indonesia’s Natuna Regency, and all around this archipelago, the Natuna Sea, bordered by Borneo to the east, the Java Sea to the south, and the Malay peninsula to the west, and extending north to cross a disputed international border with China into the South China Sea. And it’s a border that matters, there’s gas here! But why worry, let’s race – 2050nm in our goo’ol’ Open 60s in between the production platforms, prowling destroyers and submarines.

Panama Canal 2026


Sailing in the Panama Canal isn't the best idea, and organizing a race there is simply impossible and unfeasible IRL. In SOL, we have slightly different rules, so why not? A 36nm, frantic race awaits us, and the fast Dehler 30 OD will help us navigate the Panama Canal with grace.
