> 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.

Brisbane to Keppel Tropical Yacht Race 2025


When the winter weather turns cool in southern Australia sailors head up to the warmer waters of The Great Barrier Reef and the big winter regattas at Hamilton Island, Airlie Beach and Magnetic Island.

Haugesund to Reykjavik 2025


In late April 2016 Draken Harald Hårfagre, the worlds largest viking ship built in modern times, left her home port in Haugesund, Norway and sailed off for a challenging voyage across the North Atlantic Ocean.
The aim was to explore and relive one of the most mythological sea voyages – the first transatlantic crossing, and the Viking discovery of the New World, more than a thousand years ago. History tells us about the Viking explorer, Leif Eriksson, who discovered America over 500 years before Christopher Columbus. The expedition was all about exploring the world, just like the Vikings did.
Sailonline is racing the 1000 nm first leg, from Haugesund, Norway, to Reykjavik, Iceland in our Farr 400. Let us sail in the wake of history on this epic adventure!

Africa by Sea - Swakopmund to Maputo 2025


Time again to continue our exploration of Africa by Sea, which now takes us around the tip of the continent at Cape Agulhas and up the coast of South Africa to Mozambique’s marvellous Maputo, where we should find good anchorage in the bend of the Rio Espirito Santo (Umbuluzi) once we’ve cleared the 60m high Maputo - Katembe suspension bridge. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be glad to be sailing our comfortable and sturdy Xp-55, as we will certainly experience more headwinds!
