I can't see any posts in the chat, nor any numbers on the 'steer' page, no names on the leaderboard etc.... on the chat I have the names of people who have written something but no posts as such. I've rebooted and cleared my cache and still nothing is happening.... any ideas?

Sounds to me like a Flash issue. You might need to update. Right click on the Race screen and then on the About Adobe link... if you need to update Flash it will tell you what to do.

Otherwise... clearing your Flash Cache can help.

To do that, on race screen, Right Click and then select Global Settings and then delete.

Have you tried logging on through the SOL Classic Client and then if all is OK, changing the end of the url from ?version=classic to ?beta=true ....

hope hmm or someone sees the links to this thread!

CG has something recently changed on your PC? Such as loading updates?
Might try reinstalling Flash to see if that helps.
Another idea might be just try a different browser such as Chrome.
Typically if you clear the IE cache, and reboot it should clear up.
I've seen something similar once but then it went away. Not sure what happened.

CG,

What is:
- your machine
- what OS do you use
- what browser do you use

Another thought, and not sure if it's possible, but could the font color in the browser or flash be set to the background color. Meaning both set to white?

Just a thought, not sure how that could happen or if it's possible.

What browser? (what OS)? Does it happen in other browsers? Can you select the invisible text, or is not there rather than just invisible? Could you post a Screenshot? have you done anything with fonts recently (added new fonts, or something)?

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!
