Hi Bimmer,

What is the .vmg files? And how do I open those files?

I know that the .csv files are used by Qt, but I don't know what the .vmg are used for.

Thanks,
Antonio

Boat Info

Board » General Discussion

I just noticed that we now can get a boat info with a profile, a picture, the polar AND a list of all the races the boat was used here on SOL. All this summarized on a single page PDF.
How clever, and interesting information to have.
To whoever came up with this idea;
Thank You !

One of the beauty of SOL is it's simplicity. These rules are very simple to understand and simple to follow.
Well done.
Thank you all involved in running this great platform.

Hi IANDOG,

During practice the finish line does NOT stop your boat.

Newport to Bermuda Race

We have sailed this traditional race twice on SOL with the last one just finished.
I am sure it was a painful experience for the ones caught by the blue arrows, the so called Bermuda High.

For some it was a delightful race, but I am sure that for everyone it was an intrigue and demanding experience.

The real life Bermuda Race is sailed every two years, next on to be in 2016. Over the many years of existence, there was fast runs, very fast runs, slow runs and painful runs but always very interesting.

I would like respectfully ask the Sailonline Race Committee to consider including this race on our racing calendar, once every two years, always starting on the 3rd Friday of June.

Thank you very much,

I would like to thank all podium sailors who take time to write race reports.
I don't remember when this trend started, but it is fascinating and instructive feedback reading.

Thanks mates,

SOL's Bermuda Triangle TIMED Race 2023
Inspired by the America’s Cup racing in Bermuda, this is a fun triangular course of 90nm, which we originally raced with psail and bonkhoot’s collaborative polar for the AC72 foiling catamaran. Having tried the course in the more pedestrian Open 60 in 2021, this year we return to the AC72, in fact to the MODIFIED AC72v2, modified to remove the inconsistencies that obtained from the original interpolation of the limited data issued by the AC 2003 Principal Race Officer in connection with penalties determination. This is a TIMED race, which means you get multiple chances to try out the ramifications of the revisions. Be careful though, the polar remains a handling challenge with major stall-out potential!

Christmas to Christmas Island 2023
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, so prepare your Volvo70s 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 2023 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 2023. Please have fun! Fair winds!
