    Well Jakob, I had figured as much... Thing is, I DID set it for TWA, it just wasn't working... It happened several times ;)

    Oh well, it's solved now :)

    Does the sun shine? Is the water wet?

    Ofcourse it was changing, otherwise I have other things to do than to impose on you :)

    It seems to be ok now though... Thks

    Boat turned exactly the opposite way!
    Board » Technical Support
    Well, here I was, ranking 84th, and windward of all the fleet, and I decide to set a course of 180, to stay right in the middle of the dying wind in about 6 hrs. Well, I sent the command and turned my back to go eat something. When I got to the pc minutes later, the boat had set a course to 360º!! Exactly the opposite of what was keyed in and sent. Funny right? From 84th to 500something in minutes! Thks a lot guys! :=)

Africa by Sea - Abidjan to Swakopmund


Our exploration of Africa by Sea continues. Next, it’s off to Swakopmund, on the water’s edge of the Kalahari desert. It’s a wind-blasted coast, and a venue of choice for those seeking to set wind-powered speed records. More likely than not, we’ll have to beat into it in our Steinlager II, to finally find some shelter behind the walls of Platz am Meer where there is a marina of sorts. Only 2200nm!
