Possibly because I had "ROADS" or something similar ticked in Google Earth. Currentlty on laptop, not desktop so can't check settings. However it did show motorways / roads linking islands in the Lat/logs stated (correctly i hope).

If it breaks, it's not strong enough!

I think you are refering to the two bridges, who connects Fyn and Mainland Jylland!! the southernmost is the old one (1935 i think), The Northernmost is the new one ( ca. 1972). A beautifull one.
Actually, when I visit my parents in law, I can see both of them at the same time (if I turn my head a bit ;-)

Certainly looks nice and possibly I could fit my yacht under it LOL.

Here again having a real chart optional display with depths and clearances would make SoL more interesting, IMHO, instead of basic white sea.

Google earth helps, but does knot have the nautical information overlay that a proper marine chart would show.

Hi Hawk - the race has now been set up in SOL. The wx system has had its lats/lons adjusted but it was done too late to catch the 1030 wx update so the change will be visible after the next update this afternoon.

To view the race for comment/amendment of course/waypoints just do this.

Log in as the sol boat.

Hawk
If I'm not mistaken, these are set up like practice races so the server doesn't "recognize" your finish. That way you can keep sailing to work out any issues in the course. I'm sure RC will have a better description/response.

SP

PS: I'm right behind you on the course!
Obviously... since forgot I was logged as SOL, again!! No doubt more protest from PaulR pending!

Red Eye 2026 - Georgian Bay

Welcome to the sensational scenic Georgian Bay of northern Lake Huron, the first area of the Great Lakes to be visited by Europeans in 1615, so former SOLer A2R informed us when he designed this geometrically tortuous course of 317nm criss-cross through its island maze. Originally known as Lake Manitoulin, in 1822 the bay was renamed after King George IV after his succession to the throne. This time we’ll take the very flashy Fareast 31R, which hopefully should keep you wide awake!

Welcome to the fourth of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International .

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!
