    Thanks Cap'n.
    I can get on via my own laptop back at camp, that uses the same network. I just learned about ActiveX filtering, yes its disabled on work computers. Just have to come up with a work related reason for me to have ActiveX now.

    Hi, I'm back again, or trying to be.
    Just tried starting a race but clicking on the big blue button I get a white screen and on the Classic link I get a blue screen but nothing loads and no error messages.
    I have IE11, version 11.0.9600.18204 and have Flash version 20.0.0.306 and have tried everything in the "What to do if Sailonline is Unavailable?
    I'm at work so can't really go to IT to fix the issue - any suggestions on how I can make it work?
    Cheers
    Spindrift.

    Thanks RC for coaching me to get badges on my avatar. I have been away far too long and have so much reading to catch up on about SOL and SYC developments in teh last few years. I promise not to be absent for so long again :)

    I can't remember all the plaes I have journeyed to over teh years, so been conservative with badge selection - looking forward to building on it .....

    err, the pic shows leaving SOL start to starboard but the words say to leave to port - which is right?

    "So our boats are a moving point, rounding a point (mark). "
    taking the geometry example above and other mathematical axioms and postulates you could redefine the reference field so the mark point was moving around the boat point and the boat point was stationary. In which case a protest could not be upheld for hitting or passing over the mark, as it would have hit or passed under you.

    Tried getting in to check race at work but got a page saying
    "Alternate HTML content should be placed here. This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash"
    but I already have Flash installed and it worked a few days ago. Has some setting or something changed that I need something else installed (no admin rights so can't install anything myself :()

    Have sent mail to crew@sailport.se with a couple of screenshots...

    and disable the Google Earth thing too, then it will really keep everyone in the dark...

    Was very interesting to see who had gone where once someone said the GE tracker was working, but even more so if only every 6 hours or some other time, like a regular radio sched.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 3

Leg Three of our Round North Island Series, in partnership with SSANZ, keeps the pressure on! From Cook Strait, the fleet turns north for a 187 nautical mile passage up the east coast to Napier. It may look like a quick overnighter, but shifting coastal winds and the ever-lively Cook Strait demand sharp focus. In our responsive Sun Fast 3600s, a proven short-handed racer and powerful downwind performer, tactical decisions and precise timing will make all the difference!

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. To give each leg of the ROW a bit of length we'll try to hug the coasts as little as possible, so starting in Iceland our first leg of the series, which will also be the final leg of our Quarter 1 Ocean Championships takes us 7200nm to the Falklands, the full length of the Atlantic end to end. To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.
