    Any chance of a non flash version that would run on the iPad?
    Or a new mini client HD?

    Schakel, thanks for the link. I still couldn't get it done on the mac so I powered up an old pc and got it to work. Just my luck that the servers I'm connected to are the last refresh.

    Kalle, no complaints here. No different than blowing out a chute, breaking a rudder, etc. in RL. At least I know have something to blame my poor performance on!! :)

    I had access at home this am but at work now and I can't get into the race. Is there a problem again or is just something at my end? I'm in the USA and on a Mac (so the PC suggestion was not helpful).

    I too had a problem with my delayed DC course start. Also beached a couple times due to DC not working. Just assumed I did something wrong.

    Thanks.
    Just so you know, as I was approaching the line I was sending repeated 1 degree course changes to pinch up to the line...

    regards

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
