    I can see that exact URL as you say in chrome://net-internals. I'm pasting it into AdBlock/Options/Customize/Manually Edit Your Filters but it won't block the weather. The only block I can get is with www.sailonline.org/* which of course blocks everything.
    I'm home now (and on Linux). I try again on Monday at work.
    Thanks for your help Outlaw.

    Good suggestion Outlaw.

    It didn't matter what I blocked; http://www.sailonline.org/*/xml/*
    http://www.sailonline.org/*/weather/*
    http://www.sailonline.org/site_media/*
    non made any difference but of course http://www.sailonline.org/*
    killed it completely confirming that the block was in fact working.
    I'm guessing the weather request coming from flash may actually bypass Ad Block - is it even an http request? Or it may be that its waiting for more than just weather.

    Thanks for your help

  • Weather no updating

    I'm behind a corporate firewall and I'm not able to login. The client gets stuck waiting for weather. Its been suggested before that a load balancing proxy will do this but I checked with IT and we don't have one of those. Any other suggestions?, ports?, protocols?, etc that I *might* be able to persuade IT to change for me?

    Thanks

    I also confirm this bug. I'm using the beta, just set a course (no DCs) and went to bed. Next morning I was stalled with a twa of near zero.

    Cheers

  • Bug: DC on predictor.
    Board » Technical Support
    Is this the right place for a bug report on the new client beta?

    The orange dot on the predictor line doesn't update when the DC is edited. The dot remains in its original position. If you exit and restart the client the dot no longer appears. I guess it's only placed when the original DC cmd is sent?

    Otherwise a truly excellent improvement to the client, thanks.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
