Hi guys !

Schakel, it seems we have exactly the same problem... at least for your 7 running pc !

Exmer, I have a 32 bit machine and changed the directory file a few days ago. I also tried compatibility mode without result.

BW is even not working with the grib files furnished as examples...

Regards

Hi Joshua,

I just tried the latest version, 1.4, and it isn't. I was going to file a bug report but work got in the way.

I have received the following answer from Jeff :

Quote- There was a problem with the way that GRIB files were loaded. The date and time stamp on the GRIB is converted to an internal representation (decimal hours since a fixed start date). The conversion makes some calls to system time functions. The calls worked fine as long as the computer's local time zone was west of Greenwich (that is, UTC - ) but failed for local time zones east of Greenwich (UTC +) . That's why I never saw the problem on my computers -- I've only ever run the program in the Western hemisphere! Unquote

The latest version of BW should now be working fine for the poor guys on the eastern side !!!

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.
