    Just realized the circle maybe is of another color, just shows badly on my screen.

    I've not read through all the 11 pages of suggestions, so I may be reiterating some of them. However, two thoughts:
    One is simple, I believe
    A)When you use the course planner, the wheel or whatever it's called (the tool to lay out a new cc or twa) the effect of the new TWA is indicated in the Performance plot. Could the new "performance circle" (the small circle that indicates the new speed/twa) be indicated in another color than black, which is the color of the current speed/twa.? [In the next post I realise the color probably is different...]
    B)I agree that having the ability to use waypoints through the course makes it a bit too mechanical. However - and I believe this has been brought up earlier - alarms at certain long/lats or along lines of long/lats might be an alternative. Sound or email alerts (which could be mobile email of course). Could be implemented on server but maybe better as a client "GPS" with an email agent. Some development to be done, I believe, but: open up an interface to each boats long lat (pw protected) and let a 3rd party (not I!) do development.
    Just a late night idea.

    My feeling is that any irl yacht club would promote participation, so I don't have a problem with that (although it probably works against me).

    Just for the record, it's also important to ascertain that your screen resolution is lower than that indicated by the "max screen resolution" in the open GL tab in display properties. The max screen resolution seems to vary with the antialiasing settings. So either change screen resoltuion or the anti aliasing setting.

Tobruk to Iskenderun 2026

Welcome to the fourth of our nine races across the length and breadth of the Magical Mediterranean Sea, and the second that is not in partnership with a real-life event, this time for good reason, which we won’t get into here. From Tobruk to Iskenderun it’s 670nm in length, with the added complication that the island of Cyprus will be in your way. Hoping, possibly forlornly, for plenty of downwind sailing, we’ll take the Lagoon 55 for the voyage!

Tasmania to Kamchatka 2026

Welcome to yet another all-new route. Tasmania to Kamchatka, part of our Ocean Championship and also the third leg of the ROW (Round the Old World) series. Be aware of the obstacles on the way, likely to split the fleet. It's like X:mas to X:mas, crossing the same waters, navigating the same archipelagos. This second race of OCQ2 2026 will be sailed in our revised 'version 2' Imoca 60 Foil. Race #2031
