Thank you ,both maitai & Bimmer for the incredible interest, co-operation & work done! IMHO, the greatest improvement was linking SOL wind - we sail with the wind SOL gives us, I believe...
Again, thank you both for this great router

I believe we have a problem with exporting the .csv file. I get this from kroppyers converter:

ERROR: Time conversion failed, trying to continue. DCs could be wrong.
ERROR: Can't find TWA values in the file, trying to continue. DCs could be wrong.
ERROR: Can't find COG values in the file, trying to continue. DCs could be wrong.
TWA:

Viva all.

The “problema” - if we can call it like that - was the addition of an extra column (“GUSTS”) in the generated CSV file after the release of the 3.5.6 qT version.
Once again, as already suggested, it should be possible to customize the columns to be generated in the output CSV file.
IMHO there are #12 columns in the CSV file that we don’t need at all, and only contribute to heavier files.

When you have a problem with the converter, please send me the csv file that is causing the problem, then I can have a look at what may be causing the issue.
Otherwise, all I can do is guess:
Does the csv use a different kind of separator? e.g. "," instead of ";" (I believe it used to be ";", but I'm not sure, maybe it used to be ",")

It's 5mn to record a small excel macro that will get rid of the columns you don't want each time you load it.

C’mon Phillipe,

Generate first to remove after doesn’t make much sense.

Can you explain me why do we need to have these columns: Sail/Engine, SOG, COG, AWS, AWA, CS, CD, GUSTS, RAIN, COMB WAVES HGT, MAX WAVES HGT and last, MAX WAVES DIR?

Wouldn’t it be more logical/practical/quicker to each one have the possibility to choose the route output columns?

Thank you.
Sail Fair.

These data were asked from people who are using qtVlm IRL. Rain for instance has been the subject of a big debate in the past month (how to count it), or waves, currents, etc. Recently gusts and pressure were also requested and added. One can also imagine air/sea temperature, cloud cover, dew point, pollution, and much more. We will therefore probably continue to add more columns. It's easier to ignore data you don't care about than to look after them if you need it. Size of the file is not an issue, being between really small and just small.

Actually, there is a bug in headers when you ask a route export with raw data. I don' want to push a new patched version for PC now (Android and iOS versions have been patched already), but if you need a working version with raw data export just tell me. That bug existed also in 535 version.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

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
