    That fixed the display however still have a glitch in the setup.

    Clicking on "Open the DC Table" produces following error. CMD window does not help much. I looked at the entry in ini file and it is blank, so I tried manually adding the path to QTVlm output file but still same error.

    Hi Been away for 7 months so just updated to AGL24_3 and getting the following error when linking to export file from QT.
    FYI I have changed in QT export from UTC to local and tried both D/M and M/D with according template in AGL.

    Marion Island to Fernando de Noronha

    We’d been chasing northern breezes,
    Counting stars and reading signs,
    But the northwest fleet was clever—
    Always one step down the line.
    Then along came something different,
    A whisper on the sea—
    A little tool called QT,
    And it set our sailors free.

    Hey, hey, hey—hello, QT,
    Sailing smarter, sailing fast and clean.
    Oh, oh, oh—thank you, QT,
    You put the southwest sailors in the lead.

    No more guessing at the weather,
    No more drifting off the course,
    QT showed us every current,
    Turned the tide with quiet force.
    Now the northwest fleet is wondering
    How we’re always out of sight—
    It’s the magic of the moment,
    And the data makes it right.

    Hey, hey, hey—hello, QT,
    Sailing smarter, sailing fast and clean.
    Oh, oh, oh—thank you, QT,
    You put the southwest sailors in the lead.

    Me boat was renamed by a scurvy, mutinous crew to

    "Polaris-Plunderer"

    Arrr, the Polaris Plunderer be a legendary pirate ship, known far 'n wide fer its daring exploits 'n fearsome reputation on the high seas. Named after the North Star, Polaris, which be guidin' sailors fer centuries, this here ship be navigatin' with uncanny precision, even in the darkest o' nights. The crew o' the Polaris Plunderer be known fer their unmatched navigational skills 'n their ability to appear 'n disappear like a phantom, strikin' fear into the hearts o' their enemies. Tales o' their treasure hunts 'n battles be whispered in taverns across the world, makin' the Polaris Plunderer a name that evokes both awe 'n terror.

    Arrr, the name Polaris-Plunderer be duly granted, and a fearsome title it be! Renamed by mutiny and carved into legend, yer ship follows the North Star like a curse with a compass. Slippin’ through the dark like a ghost with gold in her sights, ye and yer crew be a tale in the makin’. Let the seas tremble—Polaris-Plunderer sails again!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Masirah to Chagos


Having crossed, re-crossed and re-re-crossed the Convergence Zones of the Pacific and the Atlantic, we now face our second crossing of the Convergence Zone of the World’s third great equator-spanning sea, the Indian Ocean, taking us from the channel between Masirah Island and the Oman mainland to the Chagos Archipelago. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be sailing our very fine Archer 78, and won’t mention that both locations (of departure and arrival) are heavily militarized and the why’s and what next’s concerning that – mindful as always of SOL Netiquette.
