    Conyo here, steering for shearwater in the first part of the Transat while he is on vacation. Any chance of making the race viewer have a name at the top? Otherwise I am searching for who is who when 2 screens are open, or going back to the main page to find out what name I am logged in under. Don't want him beating me up because I have done something crazy with his boat intead of my own... thanks.

    Hello!

    My boat has stopped... I finished the race, and when I sailed through the finish line without sticking to it, I realized I missed the first mark. I tried to make another lap, and now I am frozen. What can I do??

    You are a genius! (I did not have the time zone set correctly)

    I have been trying to join SYC but it does not like my Spanish Bancaja visa electron card. I'll have to find a different way to contribute... maybe give you some cash in Stockholm next June.

    Hello... No don't know what solved it, but I suspect it was the Cape Town server timing out or something. Now in Hamble and all seems perfect. I expect the internet in Cochin will be a shocker though!

    One thing is that the UTC is 8 hours off on my screen. Anybody else have this anomaly??

    Solved itself...

    Thanks... I'm doing that already actally. I am beginning to suspect the local server isn't all it could be.

    I am having trouble with both the old client and the new one. The new one is permanently "waiting for weather data" and shows no boats, chat, or map. I am in Cape Town at the moment, and don't know if it is this African Server, or a different problem.

    The old client says "Internal server error" sometimes, and other times gives the map, but with no boat or weather data.

    Anybody having the same trouble?

    May Transat is my first race, and having lots of fun!

    Another ruler tool in a different colour would be nice to help plan different possible routes. Sometimes my screen ends up covered with useless black lines around the screen perimeter just so I can get back to the boat to start plotting another possible course. That ruler tool is very usefull!!

    Also it would be nice to have "Hours ahead" in the weather slider as well as the time. As it is now, it is difficult to keep track of present time, future time, number of hours ahead, and distance when making a plan.

    Thanks, it is a great game!

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
