> chmod +x generate-launchers.sh 
> ./generate-launchers.sh 
generated AG.sh and AG_no_ini.sh with
absolute paths, you can safely copy or move
the files elsewhere
> cat AG.sh 
java -jar /home/huib/sol/ag_x_y_z.jar
autoGribLoader.ini ag_x_y_z.jar
> cat AG_no_ini.sh 
java -jar /home/huib/sol/ag_x_y_z.jar
ag_x_y_z.jar
Would this work? It's a slightly different approach I think.

EDIT file contains a typo: "more" instead of "move", but it needs editing anyway

I discovered a small bug in this Version 2.5.5 which has an adverse affect on the server and will cause the application to crash if there are no boats in the AIS list. If you have already downloaded, please re-download and replace autoGribLoader 2 5 5.jar file with the one in this zip file. Version 2.5.5
There appears to be an issue with the latest qtVlm release where the course waypoints are not being loaded into qt. The work around is to import the gpx file <race_id>_course_waypoints.gpx that is created in the polar folder.

EDIT: You need to check "Treat RMB messages (WP)" at the bottom of the NMEA Tab in qT. Solution from Bimmer.

Kipper: It would be really useful to be able to log data for all boats or perhaps just those selected for AIS display. Last year psail and I used hmmm's logs to do some post-race analysis on the 2016 Mel-2-Osaka race but unfortunately hmmm's site is no longer available.
Version 2.5.6 is now available and has the following enhancements
1. Added ability to create a log file of AIS boats data (dtayls request)

Bug fixes – 2.5.6
1. Fixed localisation issues with the creation of polar files

Thank you so kindly Kipper.
I'm still amazed how good your tool is :-))
Version 2.5.7 is now available and has the following enhancements:

1. Ability to load exported qtVlm detailed routes (gpx format) as additional course waypoints in the DC Checker
2. Highlights DC’s where performance loss minimisation is possible
3. Current TWA on Current Boat Data tab will highlight when the twa is outside the maximum VMG ranges
4. Boat Data Table will only show boats that have not finished. Fixes the problem with multiple boats showing in timed races
5. Reorganised the window title to allow better identification of race and important data.

Bug fixes – 2.5.7

1. Various bug fixes with corrupt or partial downloads of server data.
2. Issues with loading gpx data.
Version 2.5.7p1 is a patch need to handle the missing tilemap tag in the race information xml. DC Checker won't work in the Twisted Race unless this version is installed.

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!
