Currently helping out for a delivery to St. Lucia.
Ending up leaving several days late so 25+kt broad reach is now a 10-15 beat most of the way. Not enough fuel to run for 10+ days under motor.
I don't know if it is possible but knowing when would be the optimal times to run the engine in order to catch that shift/front/etc... I think that would be useful
Constraints being how many hours of run time are available based on available fuel.

Hello,
See the advanced optimal routing settings. There is an option for motoring and a minimum boat speed at which to start motoring.

I have been using that and it is helpful. It however assumes you have unlimited fuel. You can reduce the cutover point to control how much motoring. But I can see a situation where you only have 1 days worth of fuel for example and need to decide when to use it. If I am only making 4 kts under sail but 7 under power. It might make sense to know when going 7 kts could get you to the next favorable bit of breeze. Or maybe I am overthinking this.
