2007-12-26 22:21:42 - boat sails one timestep then turns 180 deg the wrong way
Trying out the winterchallenge but can't make it work. Seems that after given a command it only works for one timestep...
Difficult to race under these conditions ??
==================
Seen this in the log, don't think it's related but looks bad

This type of behavior may occur if you collide with land. Zoom in quite a lot to make sure that you do not hit land. Let us know how things turn out.

Kamchatsky to Tromsoe 2024

Just before the light failed entirely in Antarctica, Skip Novak managed to get his Pelagic 77 out of the ice and north up the Pacific to Kamchatsky. The sun is shining (24/7) and not a penguin to be seen, and Skip believes the Norh East Passage is ice-free (sufficiently) to attempt it, so all aboard for a c 4250nm voyage from east to west across the top of Siberia, Russia and Norway to Tromsoe!
