Just as well I checked my course!!

Having calculated that I'd be at the mark around 11am today I was just tweaking the course to get a little closer to it .... then realised I'd be passing the mark at 0345!! Had to quickly put in a DC to head up .... and got it right ... well - didn't go too early ....

Right Mr Dipper - I'm only 13Nm off your stern .. (been here before haven't we?!)

And |'m only 5 nm off yours!!

I think you installed a trojan into my computer. When I logged on to the game I thought goody, I'm doing 20 knots. Then I realised I was heading 0 degrees! It looks like it did it as I logged on for some reason.

Thinking about it, maybe I clicked the 'Send command' button as I dragged the box out of the way.

Doh! /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Ahhh, but maybe someone has got your password........

You must have been tanking along for the final few hours before the mark.

I've just checked my course for this morning and I went 1.2nM out of my way. It could have been worse I suppose. I'm glad I noticed that my boat was pointing the opposite way to everyone else. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I must remember not to knock the autopilot when I stumble out into the cockpit in the morning. I thought one of my crew was on the helm but they were all asleep in their bunks.

I missed the turn by 4.4Nm, but I think I'm pointing a bit higher than you now .....
