	As near as I can figure it seems that Adobe pushed out an update in early May, 2015 that basically didn't "take out the trash". It seems that certain certificate files that should have been replaced in both server and client side of products weren't. Maybe humm and kroppyer can make some sense of this thread: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1837656. In the meantime on the client side I found the following to work on both Win 7 and Vista machines and assume it will work for all OSs. Right click in the field of the client holder for the races. From the drop down list choose "Global Settings". Wait for a bit..it seems to take a while to load (at least on a 2.6 Mbps cable connection in a 3rd world internet country like the U.S.) because the settings are held on the Macromedia server. When it does load you will see a page called "Flash Player Help". From the menu on the top left corner, select Global Storage Settings Panel. When it loads you will see a box on the top right. At the bottom of this there are two check boxes, one labeled "Allow third-party flash content to store data on your computer" the other "Store common Flash components to reduce download times". Uncheck both. Next to clear Flash Player cache select the tab "Website Storage Settings panel". Wait for it to load (around 30 seconds here). In the box click the button "Delete all sites". close the window and the reload the Flash client. It should now work. For Optimum Angles Tool, when you try to load the page there two bars the bottom one says "Error #2046" the top one a white and light grey bar. In order to get to Global Settings right click in the middle of the white/grey bar. You may also be able to reach the Global Settings panel by pasting: http://www.macromedia.com/.../settings_manager02.html into the address bar of your browser. Most of the error 2046 seem to be in chromium browsers like Chrome and Dragon, though I had 2046 errors with Optimum Angles Tool in all browsers on my Win 7 Laptop (Dragon, Chrome, IE, PaleMoon, and Opera).

	I have started anew thread "RSL Error #2046" as I believe that this problem deserves a new thread. Best to all..Ahmet

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024

Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

St Nazaire Chasse TIMED Race 2024

Welcome to a "chasse" (hunt) from St. Nazaire to La Baule on the west coast of France! This race was designed by SOLer FR_flouflou in 2010. The KER 40 was introduced to SOL in 2016 by SOLer psail, and the Sol-KER was a welcome addition to SOL’s fleet of 40- footers, as it was to the IRL Ker fleet of eponymous - like KERonimo, KukuKERchu and Ice BreaKER. This is a TIMEDrace, so you may RE-REGISTER HERE to try again, after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to show your skill and decision making after the race opens.

The Beagle in the Straits of Magellan 2024

Both before and after visiting the Falkland Islands, the Beagle extensively explored the south eastern coast of South America, hither and thither, from north of the Rio Plate to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, but it was not till the end of June 1834 that the ship made it into the Pacific Ocean, transiting via the Straits of Magellan. Online in 2024, the choice is yours - passage the strait or round the cape; 400nm or more in your Class B Tall Ship.

Welcome to the second leg of this Round The World series 2024. It's also the April edition of this year's ocean race championship. The course is the same as the one sailed in 2023, but this year we sail the iconic Swan 65, as suggested in the concluding RTW race last year.
Prepare yourselves for an epic 30-day journey, navigating through the unpredictable waters of the South Seas.
