2017-03-05 18:39:59 - SOL-utions ...
Hello Solers,
recently hmm's site stopped working and there is no opportunity to know data of other boats (I agree this).
But we lost some very useful feature: the opportunity to read the data of our own boat (COG - TWA - VMC) with prediction up to 4 days in steps of 15.0 min.
I'm not able to make software that can give me this information and ask: "there is some "SOLer Programmer" who is able to do it?"
Thanks and FW all.
Carlo Alberto

Scara - Just download and use Kipper's tool "AGL" from here: http://solfans.org/blog/weather/dc-checker-editor-grib-loader-and-more/
You can see this (attached)

Thanks Bimmer,
I know that AG gives data of all boats (and I don't like): I need data only of my boat with COG - TWA - VMC preview for 4 days.
I don't think AG provides these data.
About data of all boats, I know that SOL not agree to make them public, and I believe that Kipper should at least limit the update at no less than 15 minutes.

WxInspector has a long predictorline right? Both for TWA and COG, just not VMC (the most useful of the three...)

I'm not aware of any software that would help you with that, other than routers..

PS: I'm very glad kipper shares his "live data from other boats"-tool, instead of keeping it to himself, only sharing a version that gives data of other boats only every 15 minutes.

Hello Kroppyer,
I try to explain better ...
Clicking SCARABOCCHIO in the hmm's data list, opens a new page with an "Excel type table" showing the data of my boat: choosing COG - TWA or VMC, with a minimum interval of 15 minutes for a maximum of 4 days of prediction period, appears a new table with the prediction data required.
Look at the attachment, it is an example of what I mean.
With these data was possible to check the boat's course and set the DC more easily.
Thanks all.
Carlo Alberto

The predictor line in WxInspector is (as far as I know) the closest to that. It's a bit of a hassle to get the numbers, but you should easily find you position after X minutes, and with that, the windspeed/direction at that location at that time, etc. etc.

Now I think about it, Kipper's tool may provide similar functionality.

Camel or Balloon - Khartoum to N'Djamena


As there is a lull in the calendar, your PRO has decided to risk an experiment – a balloon race over land, using a workaround to eliminate the recognition of water/land transitions. If it fails, the server may crash, and we abandon PDQ, hopefully after leg 7 of the ABS race to Suez has been decided, and before the start of the 1st OCC of Q4. Camel or Balloon – c 1000 nm from a field on the north bank of the Blue Nile at Khartoum to a field on the north bank of the Chari River at N'Djamena!
