It is a bit difficult to see with alle the lines, but it appears to me as if you first passed Grays Reef to the west and north and then headed back passing south of Grays Reef and then continued your normal navigation thinking you had passed correctly.

What you should have done is go back exactly the way you came, passing north and west of Grays reef again before passing south of it and resuming navigation.

HTH,
Philip

Hi ostra - I have sent a mail to the SOLgods ... hope they can sort this out for you!

Are the waypoints not showing as rounded? Have you refreshed your browser and emptied the browser cache?? Both those actions often clear up one's track.

As an afterthought: 76 trumpets posted some illustrations about correct rounding procedures that may be helpful.

The rounding of Grays Reef Light is incorrect, after you passed on the wrong side you need to go back the same way and actually round the wp.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Cocos to Sagar Island


Kapil Muni, incarnation of Lord Vishnu, founder of the Samkhya school of philosophy, disturbed from his meditation, in his wrath reduced the 60,000 sons of Sagar to ashes, as they dug the earth to retrieve the sacrificial horse that Lord Indra, the king of the Gods, stole off Sagar, thus creating the Sagara (ocean). Aeons later, Bhagiratha, a descendant of Sagara, asked Ganga to cleanse the ashes of the 60,000 princes, and her resultant torrential fall from heaven created the great river and where it met the ocean, the princes’ souls were washed and raised to heaven and Gangasagar (Sagar Island) was formed. So, let us join the pilgrimages to Kapi Muni’s Temple (see above) and race 2400nm from Cocos Island deep in the Sagara thence, in rather rapid Rapido 60s.
