    Hi .Once again pen to paper.I hate computors,but do enjoy the game,but this Beta I have to admit is completely spoiling my(me)game.Firstly the actual course is so small to watch and use,it is only about a third or even less of screen area.The polar is half covered by the advert to join SYC,which makes it useless,and bigger than the course itself.I understand you have to have adverts etc for sponsorship etc,but to the detriment of the game,I dont understand.The coloured tracks are very pretty,but clutter up what you can only just about see,on the old system track came on when boat was selected.Its quite possible that its my system that is faulty,but since everything else works perfectly I have my doubts.Zoom you may say,ok but then you can only see the boats and notthe facilities for adjusting.
    If you can advise me on any way of improving things or what Im doing wrong here I would be mpost grateful!!
    Meanwhile happy sailing to the "contented"Beta users and sympathy to users who may have my problems if any!!
    Thank you

Current Races:

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!

Andaman Islands PYOC 2025


The Andaman Islands are an archipelago, made up of 200 islands, in the northeastern Indian Ocean. Together with the Nicobar Islands to their south, the Andamans serve as a maritime boundary between the Bay of Bengal to the west and the Andaman Sea to the east. These waters will be the theater of our next 240nm race in the ARCH 2025 series. Which one you choose depends only on you, i.e. your Elan 410 sport will leave the Andaman Islands on the starboard or port side.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
