    Hi all

    Been away from SoL and qtvlm for a while, and have forgotten the little that I knew before.

    I am trying to figure out how to run a routing that takes the Gulfstream into account. I know it can be done, but age is beginning to tell :-)

    I just filled in the cells per other polars which I know work, not converted from a txt file or any other format. What do I need to do with the csv file to make it work?

    I'm having issues converting an excel file into csv format. I follow the instructions, yet QTVLM won't accept it. Can anyone help me and show we where I went wrong?

    Coming back to Expedition (and SoL, to be fair) and after a few years away, and I cannot figure out how to connect Brainaid's NMEA to Expedition. I have no issues with QTVLM. Can someone put me out of my misery please?

    It says Baggus, you're not the Messiah, you're a very naughty boy. The missing link, many thanks. I can now go back to figuring how my babies work.

    Tried everything, nothing works. Perhaps it doesn't work with v 5.4-3

    Thank you Sir. I thought I'd done that (I was following the conversation you had with the French chap on the qtvlm site).

    Is the IP 127.0.0.1 taken from the Brainaid NMEA ip address for your computer, or is it the same for everyone?

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!
