    Hi all

    Been away from SoL and qtvlm for a while, and have forgotten the little that I knew before.

    I am trying to figure out how to run a routing that takes the Gulfstream into account. I know it can be done, but age is beginning to tell :-)

    I just filled in the cells per other polars which I know work, not converted from a txt file or any other format. What do I need to do with the csv file to make it work?

    I'm having issues converting an excel file into csv format. I follow the instructions, yet QTVLM won't accept it. Can anyone help me and show we where I went wrong?

    Coming back to Expedition (and SoL, to be fair) and after a few years away, and I cannot figure out how to connect Brainaid's NMEA to Expedition. I have no issues with QTVLM. Can someone put me out of my misery please?

    It says Baggus, you're not the Messiah, you're a very naughty boy. The missing link, many thanks. I can now go back to figuring how my babies work.

    Tried everything, nothing works. Perhaps it doesn't work with v 5.4-3

    Thank you Sir. I thought I'd done that (I was following the conversation you had with the French chap on the qtvlm site).

    Is the IP 127.0.0.1 taken from the Brainaid NMEA ip address for your computer, or is it the same for everyone?

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!
