	The Madagascar reverse… I’ve made a normal routing between the Madagascar South tip and the North one obtaining the dark Isochrones field and the path in blue color - pls see attached pic. From Start to Finish waypoints the routing went along the Madagascar East coast. After I’ve made a second run for calculating the reverse Isochrones (red color ones) and, to my totally surprise ….. it went along the West coast! No barriers at all were used for both routing processes. And, IMHO, it shouldn’t be used as I was calculating the “reverse”, e.g., it should have gone in the opposite direction of the direct routing path, but along the Madagascar East coast. Or not? (meanwhile the routing calculations didn’t stop yet….) Additional info. TS: 5 minutes. Angular step: 3,00º. Scanning angle: 180,00º Prune angle: 2,00º Sail Fair.

	Yes clearly it should have gone on the same side as the normal isochrones, probably a bug here due to the coast configuration. I assumed you used the reversed-isochrone function in routing? This function is useful to determine zone of incertitude (where the envelop is thin). You can see it as "where would it be best to come from in order to be there?". If the arrival point is in such a zone I suppose the algorithm might get confused so to say, and opt for the wrong side. --- Dernière modification par maitai le 2016-02-26 13:47:49 ---

	Viva Philippe. Yes, the process for generating the "Madagascar reverse" was correct, exactly the same used for generating the one that goes on the attached file - pls have a look on it - in this case with success. I didn't tried yet, but one way to overcome this "bug" was to use a "vertical" barrier extended to the North of the Finish waypoint (Start waypoint for the reverse) to avoid a reverse routing on the wrong side of the Madagascar Coast. A Big Hug from here! Sail Fair. Attachments Reverse_Leaving_Geraldton.JPG (141.5 KB)

	Hello, AIS module is almost finished and we will open beta testing soon. If some of you are interested to help, just leave a message here (you can test that through brainaid nmea/ais interface). Fair winds to all Philippe. Attachments sol_3.png (69.3 KB)

	Ciao Maitai, I have just write on VLM forum, but perhaps this is a better place to test AIS (in vlm other boats are already visible...). So, I would try to test. I'm not sure if I'm able to (I'm non an IT technician...), but if you want I can try. As you probably know I attend races both here and on vlm. Cheers

	Bucefalo - When you "master" the beta, could you then (here in forum) give us a little "manual" ? --- Last Edited by Bimmer at 2016-03-22 15:12:17 ---

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!

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.
