    This problem deserves a new thread...

    Hi,

    Found the following advice which seems to have worked with some but not in my case!

    It means a component necessary to FormsCentral didn't download. Can you try the following:

    - Clear your browser cache

    - Go to here

    - Uncheck "Store common Flash components to reduce download times.". Click confirm.

    - Check it back on. If it exists, this will delete cached copy of the component that FormsCentral needs, and force it to download again.

    - Try to sign in.

    While my boat was beached on the shores of the Bosphorus, I was rowing on the Golden Horn amongst the old city walls of Constantinopolis! Exercise and culture, all in one!

    What you see in the background (the reddish brown buildingon the right) is The Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (Greek: Οἰκουμενικὸν Πατριαρχεῖον Κωνσταντινουπόλεως, Oikoumenikòn Patriarcheîon Konstantinoupóleos, IPA: [ikumenikˈon patriarˈxion konstantinuˈpoleos]; Turkish: Rum Ortodoks Patrikhanesi, "Greek Orthodox Patriarchate"), part of the wider Orthodox Church, is one of the fourteen autocephalous churches within the communion of Orthodox Christianity. It is headed by the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, currently Bartholomew I.

    Because of its historical location at the former capital of the Byzantine Empire and its role as the Mother Church of most modern Orthodox churches, the Ecumenical Patriarchate has enjoyed the status of "Primus inter pares (first among equals)" among the world's Eastern Orthodox prelates. Unlike the Pope, he does not exercise control over the individual autocephalous churches, which are fully autonomous. He is, however, widely regarded as the representative and spiritual leader of the world's 300 million Orthodox Christians.

    NB. Could not upload the photo! Will try again.

    Sumela (Greek Orthodox) Monastery is situated in Macka, Trabzon - which we past by yesterday - built 1600 years ago 1300 m above sea level...a difficult task!

    interesting suggestion by 76trombnes:) however i am afraid that not many of us can afford the rental fee of Euro 400K per week...after reviewing the polars of the falcon and 125 cat with poor close reach capabilities i am more inclined to suggest 90ft mono hull as we will have to do quite lot of upwind sailing and crossing the two straights will be less painful...

    my condolences and sympathy to Aaron's family and friend on the SOL...such sorrow to loose such a young lad at his prime.

    we shall miss him on the SOL...his last registration was the Pb3 2012 - Pirita beach - Paralepa beach - Parnu beach with a start at 20:00 hrs on June 29th, 2012...he was not able to start the race.

    May he rest in peace.

    Capt. Jack, your theories are correct...however besides a bit of sadism, Bozcaada is worth visiting as lately it has become famous with its wines and it is like an environmental lab. Like California:)) Cheers.

    Something for those interested in cartography...the famous Ottoman Admiral Piri Reis Map of 1513. Quite a controversy surrounds the Map. Hope you'll find it interesting.

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.

Race to Up Helly Aa 2026

A-OI!!! The fiery spirit of Shetland’s legendary Up Helly Aa returns, and Sailonline’s annual race to Lerwick is once again upon us. Covering 383 nautical miles from Aberdeen, SOLers will tackle winter waters steeped in Viking tradition. This year, we race the classic Frers 33, a proven cruiser-racer born from the golden era of offshore racing and still a sturdy performer both on the virtual and real water. Can you master the course and reach Lerwick in time for the flames?

SAILING NOTE: Gruney may be approached from any direction but must be passed for rounding purposes as indicated on the chart.

Red Eye - Hobart Convict Run 2026

Back in 2010, one of our SOLers of the first hour, AUS_Scott76, came up with this ‘Convict Run’ out from Hobart, past Cape Raoul and the penal colony of Port Arthur, round Tasman Island, up and back down the east coast of Tasmania, to finish with a tight technical run – so Scott called it – up the picturesque D'entrecasteaux Channel, home to Hobart once again. It’s 250nm, ideal for a bit of ‘Red Eye’ in comfortable Finngulf 43’s, and if the original idea was to pick up some convicts on the way for a bit of R&R and sea air, you may always drop’m back before returning to Hobart!

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Robinson Crusoe to Galapagos


Welcome to our first race of a new series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones, this first race taking you north from south of the Tropic of Capricorn to the Equator-straddling Galapagos, home of magical iguanas and other exotic fauna (but no mythical kings, Dory) Departing from the island where in 1704 adventurer Alexander Selkirk inspired Daniel Defoe to write the best-seller "The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", by debarking off the unsound "HMS Cinque Ports", four months before she foundered off the coast of present-day Colombia, we will sail the 2200nm in our decidedly sounder and faster than the " Cinque Ports",
