2011-01-06 10:56:24 - Limit on No of DC's ??
Is there a limit on the no of DC's you can give?? Last night I gave 8 DC's but the latest one 6.5 hrs ahead was not performed. Result I went aground. Maybe I just forgot to sent it although I wrote it down. Would be great to have a list of all DC's given and also to be able to later edit the list if need be.

You can list all active DCs (and remove them) if you click on the "alarm clock" tab in the client. There's no limit on DC's.

Thk's yes I already used Brainaid's polars but not tried other features. I like your picture of Wijsmuller tug which reminds me of my time in tug & salvage company NEPTUN.

Sailed that tug and her sister Typhoon for 3 years in the early nineties mainly in N sea. Still my favourite vessel. Liked the job although not in this time of year.

Myself I used to work in the office but also a lot in the field with salvage work and marine operations. In the seventies we used to have out barge fleet stationed in Rotterdam. Today the remainders of Neptun is owned by a Norwegian Company and our previous sister company Red Tug fleet by Wijsmuller.

wijsmuller doesn't exist either anymore al has been takenover by Svitzer.
But it is nice to remember.
You're still working in the salvage business ?

You're sure I thought it was the other way around that it was Wijsmuller who had taken over Svitzers??
Well nowadays I only have minor consultancy works for the small local shipowners here in Stockholm and no major salvage jobs. We are 3 guys (all pensionists) who still do some work in our company Neptun Engineering AB but only at a small scale. Tomorrow I'll leave for my summer house for some rebuilding I do on my own. It will be difficult to race only via a phone modem.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 3

Leg Three of our Round North Island Series, in partnership with SSANZ, keeps the pressure on! From Cook Strait, the fleet turns north for a 187 nautical mile passage up the east coast to Napier. It may look like a quick overnighter, but shifting coastal winds and the ever-lively Cook Strait demand sharp focus. In our responsive Sun Fast 3600s, a proven short-handed racer and powerful downwind performer, tactical decisions and precise timing will make all the difference!

The start time for this race may change at short notice to align with the real race. The confirmed start date and time will be announced via an in-race “L” flag message — Please monitor race communications closely.

Dyer Dhow Derby 2026


Most winter weekends, SOLer wsguerin and his friends at the Mamaroneck Frostbite Association venture forth on Long Island Sound to race Dyer Dhows, originally designed as WWII tenders. Indestructible little boats, great comradeship and serious short sharp races of 10 to 20 minutes duration. Sailonline now invites you to experience the joys of the Dhow in winter, virtually, by way of a slightly longer 14nm race: from Mamaroneck to Execution Rocks, over to the Gong Buoy and back to Mamaroneck. And if the wind pipes up to 20kn and beyond, you'll find SOL's customized polar will plane, rather than nosedive!

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. To give each leg of the ROW a bit of length we'll try to hug the coasts as little as possible, so starting in Iceland our first leg of the series, which will also be the final leg of our Quarter 1 Ocean Championships takes us 7200nm to the Falklands, the full length of the Atlantic end to end. To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.
