    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

    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.

Roma per Tutti 2026


Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!
