2018-10-04 03:00:55 - Adobe Flash being phased out.
Some of you like me may have noticed a change in how Chrome handles Flash. If you use Chrome browser, when you open chrome and then go to open a race you get a small banner that says something like "this site requires flash" click to install Flash Player. You then have to click an "allow" button.
In digging around Google I found:
this

This works for now but:
goodbye flash

Seeing has how the SOL Race Engine runs on Flash., how is this going to effect us after next year?

The phasing out of Flash hasn't escaped the attention of Admins and Management... so, together with our wee Tech team, there are discussions on how to best move to html5 before all is lost!

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!

It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981
