good on yer, Dipper. I left a TWA course set for a storming 432 position, instead of a CC....
However, I am going to sell the track of my course as a piece of linear art to the Tate St Ives, as it expresses the angst of the working man struggling against random environmental changes, while technical white collar workers ease past on IT determined routes.

An hour before the start all boats are taken back to the start then if you have a DC that subsequently activates you will go on the gun. Hope this helps.. mjm!

I forgot that I hadn't actually set a course for the line and needed to adjust until it was too late and I'd sailed straight past it!! I was just logging on to see where I had finished and saw that I hadn't
