  • Re: Convert Expedition Route to DC's?
    Board » Technical Support
    I’ve run into this same issue when I moved from qtVlm to Expedition. It's definitely not as straightforward, and unfortunately, I haven’t found a direct built-in tool that does a clean conversion like Kropper’s does for qt. I usually export the GPX file from Expedition, then clean it up manually or run it through a third-party converter, though it's a bit clunky. Some folks also use Excel formatting tricks or custom scripts depending on what kind of DC software you’re working with. I’ve picked up a few workarounds and editing tips from these video editing software guides, https://www.movavi.com/learning-portal/free-video-editing-software.html. It is worth a look for formatting insights and handling GPX data visually too.

  • Re: Map on pc
    Board » General Discussion
    Hey there! Welcome to the forum! I’ve noticed the same thing with the maps on my iPad compared to my PC. It can be pretty frustrating. Have you tried checking the settings? Sometimes there are options for different map styles or layers that can add more detail. I found a couple of hidden features on my device that helped a bit. If you play around with it, you might discover something useful too!

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!
