2018-02-10 00:09:01 - Sol/Brainaid/Expedition
Coming back to Expedition (and SoL, to be fair) and after a few years away, and I cannot figure out how to connect Brainaid's NMEA to Expedition. I have no issues with QTVLM. Can someone put me out of my misery please?

I do not have expedition.
But maybe this works?
In Expedition use the settings menu to select Instruments->Number of network connections. Then add a connection. Now in the Instruments->Serial and Network Ports you can choose TCP client and configure for ip-fill in address shown in brainaids nmea proxy port 5010

found in http://expedition.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=228

(I tried it in unlicenced expedition version but got message that could not be done in unlicensed etc.)

I seem to be having a similar problem. I can see the NMEA proxy tab and I am using the 192.168.0.3 IP and the 5010 port, but no data is showing on EXP. any ideas?

Try always using 127.0.0.1 in Expedition no matter what the brainaid proxy gives you. And port 5010, yes.

Did anybody figure out how this worked? Just curious. Just did my first SOL race but couldn't figure out how to connect NMEA data.

My settings (that aren't working)

Instrument: NMEA 0183
Connection: TCP Client
Address: 127.0.0.1
Port: 5010

Command: Inserted brainaid link

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Tall Ships Races 2025 - Le Havre to Dunkirk


Welcome to the first of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International . The course for this first race is between the French ports of Le Havre and Dunkirk; circa 125nm in Sailonline’s magnificent 90m Barque.
NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
