So far during practise I've used the map for the Phillipines. I've haven't yet checked if there are maps for the East China and Yellow seas.

We will fix a proper Sailplanner area for leg 4 :-)

Thanks, Jacob.
I decided to give Sailplanner a first try furing this practise and I found it kinda fun. Aren't the coordinate systems in Sailplanner and the client the same, DMS DD respectively?

coordinate system is the same. Sailplanner accepts almost any format of input, you can use dd.ddd or dd'mm etc as you like :-)

Jakob, I just downloaded Sailplanner. It shows my boat but it's not anywhere near the position I'm in Sailonlin.org. Will it work at the start of leg 4 or what? Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I'm no expert, but you can drag your boat manually anywhere. While the orientation of the boat doesn't change, the boats polar butterfly changes according to the wind. Set a couple of points with the blue button and then hit the green one to get a route calculation. Points can be moved later for recalculation.

Clarification: There is no built-in coupling between SOL and Sailplanner.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
