    Any chance of a non flash version that would run on the iPad?
    Or a new mini client HD?

    Schakel, thanks for the link. I still couldn't get it done on the mac so I powered up an old pc and got it to work. Just my luck that the servers I'm connected to are the last refresh.

    Kalle, no complaints here. No different than blowing out a chute, breaking a rudder, etc. in RL. At least I know have something to blame my poor performance on!! :)

    I had access at home this am but at work now and I can't get into the race. Is there a problem again or is just something at my end? I'm in the USA and on a Mac (so the PC suggestion was not helpful).

    I too had a problem with my delayed DC course start. Also beached a couple times due to DC not working. Just assumed I did something wrong.

    Thanks.
    Just so you know, as I was approaching the line I was sending repeated 1 degree course changes to pinch up to the line...

    regards

Valletta Sprint 2025


We invite you once again to this SOL classic around the Middle Sea, departing from and returning to historic Valletta.

This year we will race it all in very Meddy Dufour 40’s!

Christmas to Christmas Island 2025

Two waypoints, start and finish, and between them 5827 NM of two oceans. Not much time if we want to sit at the Christmas Eve table. You will need to maintain an average speed of over 10 knots, maybe quite possible with this Maxi Trimaran, but prepare your vessel well and choose the best of the many possible routes. Hands up everyone who knew there were TWO Christmas Islands?! OK, maybe you have sailed this Sailonline course before... but it's time to get ready for the 2025 challenge of racing between Christmas Island in the Pacific to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! It also marks the conclusion of our prestigious Ocean Race Championship 2025. Please have fun! Fair winds!
