  • Re: Problem with course selection in new client.
    Board » Technical Support
    Although I prefer the new flash tool over the old client, I have to say exactly the same happened to me as mentioned by captjack1942 as well last night. I zoomed in all the way over the finish line and saw my own '6 hour ahead line' crossing easily the southern tip of the finish line - with some head room. However, I also crossed the line and kept going until I hit land the other side. I woke up and sailed back over the line a second time before it was registered.
    Maybe - the finish line could change colour like the rhumb line when you are on course to hit it?

    so, just in case this helps anyone else. I found a cure for this. Previously I was using the Intel PROSet / Wireless utility to logon to my wifi network. I disabled this and allowed Windows to manage my wireless connection and then all came good.

    Now I can sail from anywhere in the house...

  • Hesitant display on Laptop.
    Board » Technical Support
    I have a hesitant display on a Laptop.

    I have the client installed and working well on two desktop pc's, one wireless the other wired. However when I installed on my laptop I get a hesitant display, that is - sometimes the client does not respond, the clock in the top left stops for a few seconds, as does the display, polar etc then just starts again. The laptop itself appears fine.

    HP Compaq nc8230,
    512MB RAM, 2.1GHz CPU
    XP Pro SP3
    ATI Mobility Radeon X600 display
    [1680 x 1050, 32bit depth]

    I have the latest video drivers from HP’s website, have tried with and without firewall and with no other apps running. It is connected to the same home network and DSL internet connection as the two working desktops via wireless. [54Mbit/s connection signal strength measured as ‘Excellent’ by windows].

    On exiting the app, I see a log error box. Log says;

Cape Town to Auckland 2024


Welcome to the second leg of this Round The World series 2024. It's also the April edition of this year's ocean race championship. The course is the same as the one sailed in 2023, but this year we sail the iconic Swan 65, as suggested in the concluding RTW race last year.
Prepare yourselves for an epic 30-day journey, navigating through the unpredictable waters of the South Seas. It's essential to take care of provisioning to ensure a smooth and enjoyable race experience. With the longer duration, we anticipate plenty of opportunities for camaraderie, competition, and unforgettable memories.

Vuelta Isla de Chiloé 2024
Designed by SOLer Hotu Matua in 2010 but barely raced since, this is a 263nm race battling the extreme sea, wind and current conditions around the fabulous landscapes of Chile’s Chiloé archipelago. Previously sailed in our somewhat unsuitable Seacart 30, we’ll venture forth in our slightly more modern, water-ballasted Sun Fast 3300 this time. Keep the hatch closed!

Casey Station to Neumayer Station 2024

It’s late summer now in Antarctica, the sun will still not set, but the Emperor chicks are hatched. Let’s yacht on from Australia’s Casey Station, destination Germany’s Neumayer Station! Our route takes us past Molodezhnaya Stancija, Russia’s self-styled capital of Antarctica, as well as Mirney (RUS), Davis (AUS), Mawson (AUS), Syowa (JAP) and Maitri (IND) down the full length of the continent’s east coast. It’s not much more than 2600nm, so let’s take Brazil’s Amyr Klink’s more stately and very comfortable 29m LOA Paratii 2 for this second leg of our six-leg high latitude adventure!
