Why is there no map for leg 4 in Sailplanner? SP Phillipines is not complete in the nothern part.

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.

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.

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
