Ok, one solutions is of course to support us by joining SYC - with the bonus that the SYC ad completely disappears =)

Hi Kalle

As a SYC member myself, I have a problem with ur reply to Bugsie re SYC advert on polar screen, when u said quote to solve the problem join SYC, this is not in the best interest of the Club or SOL, as they have one member of the family as a SYC member, an no restrictions to viewing polars, yet the other has the join SYC logo across the polars, are we going down the track of the money hungrey VOR game sites or keep this as pure an honest as the best Virtual Sailing Site

Regards Aussie Col

Hi, it was meant as a joke - however you must also agree that it also was a good workaround to the problem :)

I have made some changes in the drawing code which should further improve the placement of the ad on small screen. However, below a certain size the banner will still partially cover the polar. That is a trade-off - if we would decrease the polar size below that limit it would be unreadable for that reason. I welcome more input in this issue.

If anyone also have a better way to promote SYC I am also listening - the banner just seemed like a good idea. We do put in quite an effort in this project (a lot of our own money and time), so SYC memberships are crucial for the long term survival and development of SOL. We are very happy and thankful for all the people who has made the decision to support us via SYC - I cannot thank you enough.

Kalle, I think the flash interface is very good now. But I still miss one utility from the old client.
The possibility to progress the wind forecast for 3 hours with arrow-keys and for 6 or 12 hours with page-down/up-keys.

I hope it is possible to fix that too?

Sambal: It might not have the correct "response", but if you first click on the weather time "marker", you can then change time with left and right arrow keys.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 4

The final challenge awaits in Leg Four of the Round North Island Series! From Napier, the fleet sets off on a 354 nautical mile run back to Auckland, completing the full circumnavigation where the journey began. Fatigue may be setting in, but this last leg could decide the overall standings. Sailing the fast and responsive Sun Fast 3600, our skippers will need sharp tactics and steady focus to finish the series strong and claim victory!

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.

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!

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!

South China Sea Race 2026


Welcome all to the South China Sea and a virtual chase in Cookson 50’s of the Rolex South China Sea fleet, racing 650nm – as the local red-footed booby flies – from Hong Kong to Subic Bay on the southern tip of The Philippines’ Luzon Island. Chances are it will be a fast downwind ride, so see how you can keep up with the real-life fleet which we hope to be able to follow on our monitors.

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.
