  • Re: Error in CMD Prompt Accessing AGL
    Board » Technical Support
    @siaki
    I think you see that warning in a DOS window.
    Nothing to worry about.

    Maybe your internet-connection was temporarily somewhat slower.

    Does patience the job and is your AGL after some delay working? All is good.

    link info reads:
    https://sol.brainaid.de/notice/notice_1704.html When you click on it, it returns message not being able to make connection.
    should be:

    resulting in:

  • Re: SOLVED_No (2) digits behind the comma
    Board » Technical Discussion
    I was lucky because I use qtvlm wit english language. dot as decimal separator is then standard.

    I never used kroppyer's converter but excel & macros to get dc's into brainaids or autogribloader. And there was the same problem with dots and comma's.

    You write
    "(COGs have 3 digits before the comma and 2 digits behind)"

    Use dot . as decimal seperator instead of ,

  • Re: QtVLM and SOL
    Board » Technical Support
    @Arno1966:
    I assume you are talking about seeing AIS-targets in QTVLM.

    question: what do you use to get your boat position into QTVLM?

    When I use brainaid's nmea-proxy then after some seconds the whole fleet around me is shown. Using AGL nothing is shown or after a very long time. Maybe I am not long enough busy with qt to see that happen.

    Could one of the forum-managers move this messages from gapehom to a relevant thread or remove it if the content is not relevant to any thread in this forum?

    I'm on windows 11
    I uninstalled openwebstart.
    I installed Icedtea-Web
    brainaid's .jnlp files opened/worked much quicker than with openwebstart.

    (I do not know what IHM is but since you 'have never seen' it how do you know it is 'the worst'}

    Maybe hitting the 'GO TO RACE' button instead of
    '▶ Flash' button solves all your problems.

    And if hitting this button does not work then come back here with more specifics.
    - which operating system do you use?
    - which browser do you use? (opera, firefox, internet explorer, edge to name only a view.

    An adobe flashplayer that works in windows will be difficult/near-impossible to find. (Adobe no longer supports it since December 31, 2020)

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!

Thessaloniki to Port Said 2026

Welcome back to the Eastern Mediterranean for the fifth race of our Magical Mediterranean Series. Only marginally less unlikely to be ever raced in real life during SOL’s lifetime than our previous race from Tobruk to Iskenderun, this 710nm race takes us from Greece’s ancient northern port of Thessaloniki through the Aegean island maze, south east into the Levantine Sea to a finish in modern Port Said, in splendid Swan 65s!

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2026

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited again to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have two weeks to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
