2018-11-11 11:14:47 - $GPWPL NMEA sentences are ignored if there are special characters in WP name
These waypoints are not displayed in qtVlm when these NMEA sentences are sent through.

$GPWPL,5950.057,N,01909.176,E,Villösan*F4
$GPWPL,6011.224,N,01926.018,E,Töllingarna*92
$GPWPL,5948.833,N,01947.200,E,Flötjan*87
$GPWPL,5952.224,N,01905.144,E,Simpnäs Pir*FD

It appears to be related to the extended character set being used. Remove the ö from the name and it works fine.

Good point Kipper,
In the Nordic we use 3 caracters not found international, and we translate them as follows:

æ/ä = ae
ø/ö = oe
å/å = aa

Would be fine if SRC avoid theese caracters in the future.

2018-12-11 11:11:14 - AWS and AWA goes to zero in route logbook when grib view in the future
To reproduce, do the following.
1. Set grib time to now.
2. Edit route and check route logbook. AWA and AWS are fine. Close editor.
3. Select a route waypoint and set grib date, or step forward (I was using 5 min increments)
3. Edit the route and check route logbook. All AWA's and AWS's are zero

See screenshots below.

The zero's then flow into the export.

Hi Andrew, unless I'm not following your instructions correctly, that doesn't seem to happen to me.

Hi all.

Andrew, if memory doesn't fail, the related problem came on the qT 5.8.2 version, hence the main reason for stop upgrading qT since 5.8.1 (there are other reasons).

Qt Version 5.8-4
Windows 10

It is transient and I think it is related to an NMEA update which appears to fix the logbook. I think it also needs more than one route to reproduce. It will reproduce though by repeating the steps
1. Set grib date
2. View route logbook.

I can get it to reproduce about 50% of the time if NMEA is turned on. It does not reproduce if NMEA is turned off.

Hope this helps.

It's really weird. The instance I'm using has two routes in it. I set a grib date based on a route waypoint. The first route was fine, and the other wasn't, then they switched (did not change the date). Then they both fine, now switched back again (after about 2 minutes) and then switches again.

Hi,
Thanks for the detailed information. I was able to reproduce that and it's a race condition that can occur randomly if NMEA is on. I fixed that and it's in beta4: https://www.virtual-winds.org/maitai/qtvlm_setup_5.8.6-beta4

Please test this and tell us if it's OK now. If you or someone else needs this beta for another platform than Windows just tell me.

Philippe.

The Vineyard Race 2025


For the first time since first hosting a virtual Vineyard in cooperation with Long Island's Stamford Yacht Club back in 2010, due to an operational calendaring error, Sailonline has missed the start of the real life race, the USA’s Labor Day weekend this year unusually falling across the turn of August. Silly SOL! So, a week late please join us anyway for a virtual rerun of Stamford’s iconic annual overnighter from their club line out the sound to Buzzard's Bay Light near Martha's Vineyard Island and back again, leaving Block Island to starboard. This year, Sailonline is making its magic MC 38 available to competitors, a race boat with a quirky polar that will require you to stay wide awake as you speed around the c 250 nm course, in rockstar style!

Great Nicobar to Marion Island 2025

The Adventure Continues – Leg #6 of the RWW Series.
We’re setting sail on the next stage of the RWW Series: a 4,400-nautical-mile passage from Great Nicobar to Marion Island. This demanding leg will test endurance, strategy, and seamanship at the highest level. As part of the 2025 Ocean Championship, this marks the ninth legendary challenge in the series — and one of the most exhilarating yet. The race will be contested aboard the Archer 78’ ketch, a vessel built to push sailors to their limits across the vast Indian Ocean.

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
