    Incognito, that's very much how I feel. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

    I thanked 76T on his blog but I want to thank him here too. Very interesting blog article by the way.

  • Routers
    Board » Technical Support
    I have seen a lot of talk on the chat line about computerized routers. I'm curious as to what percentage of the leaders use them. Is a router something I simply must have to think of winning one of these races? I have placed as high as 21 without one but don't want to be at an unfair advantage.

    Also, just how much difference do they make? I've heard one sailor here estimate his finish time with a router to within 3 seconds of his actual finish.

    My guess is that a router will give you ideas you can build on. I also would expect one to be extremely useful when you need to be away from the race for any long period of time. Other than that, just how essential are they? Am I at a disadvantage without one?

    When I signed up for SOL, I used JeffB as my user name. I would like to have my boat name be Laughing Sally. Can someone help me out?

    Also, is there a way to run this game from my Blackberry? I would be happy to donate to SOL if that were possible. I may donate anyway, however, after I've tried the game out.

    I am a veteran of Virtual Regatta and have been told that this would be far more to my liking. To start with the Chicago to Mackinac race would be great since I've sailed that for real several times.

    Thank You

Camel or Balloon - Khartoum to N'Djamena


As there is a lull in the calendar, your PRO has decided to risk an experiment – a balloon race over land, using a workaround to eliminate the recognition of water/land transitions. If it fails, the server may crash, and we abandon PDQ, hopefully after leg 7 of the ABS race to Suez has been decided, and before the start of the 1st OCC of Q4. Camel or Balloon – c 1000 nm from a field on the north bank of the Blue Nile at Khartoum to a field on the north bank of the Chari River at N'Djamena!
