    Installed the tarball from java and installed it to /usr/java (as root) and now works, but still won't communicate the data to qtVlm. Hmm...

    When I try to run it from Firefox, it opens IcedTea, then fails in an identical way to downloading it and using javaws from the terminal. Using Chrome clicking on the link sends me to java.com.

    Hate to jump in on this, but I'm getting an error on running the NMEA Proxy too.

    Running into an error on unsigned jars.
    (Full error msg: http://pastebin.com/6JNr0BAa )

    Running Linux Mint, get the same error if I run as user or super user (sudo).

    Hopefully not too much of a drift - sorry if it is.

    Point of clarification please m'lud.

    In the description, the boat type is Super Maxi 100, and the download is for VO70v4.

    I presume we shall take the Volvo?

    More very useful posts as ever: thanks for running this, chaps.

    Is this the place to post requests for future articles? (If not, then ignore the rest of this...)

    In the excellent intro to qtvlm, the 'final word' section refers to the need for interpretation of the routing created. I was wondering if there could be a follow-up to this guide, showing what is meant by this, what to be looking for, what potential traps blindly following a routing may lead one into, etc.


    Many thanks!

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
