It has been a while since we have been to Cowes Week but are now planning for next week's regatta.
The courses used to be announced via text message and it was easy to put the course into Exoedition with the CW tool.
I understood that the announcements are made primarily via the CW App and no text messages are used nowadays (or are they??).

Is it still possible to use the CW tool in Expedition when the course is only anounced via the App?

Thanks for your advise

I had the IENCs running on the latest version if Expedition (imstalled it on an earklier version) and wated to update the charts (I do this regugarly). I deleted the older charts , but I found out that it was unable to upload the new charts.
I normaly download the charts and then use the "search" function under the ENC menu and select the folder the charts are in. That doensn't work anymore, so it seems.

I particular use the Dutch Rijkswatersaat ENCs (Zeeland area): https://www.vaarweginformatie.nl/frp/main/#/page/infra_enc

Thanks
 

Yes, That worked.
Should read first and then ask on the forum...
Thanks Nick

Hi, I noticed that in the new version  it is less straight forward to assign a mark as "Round to port/ starbord, gate", etc.
Right mouse clicking sometimes (not always...) denies you the option to assign
Only in the mark management menu it is possible to assign.
And (sometimes) on the chart the mark turns red when assigned "round to port" (as it was in older versions), but also somitimes not...

Furthermore the difference is that the marke numbering keeps adding up, in older version all new marks starteted at mark 1. (this is not an issue, but a difference to the old version).

The first issue, though, would be nice to see fixed....it might also affect routing, but I did not check that.
Thanks

I dont know if it is a version issue but there seem to be a bug in the weather file section: It isn't possible to show or use grib giles of (especially) the Harmony Model (North Sea/ Holland reagion). I tried other models and they don't seem to have the same problem.

It is possible to download and the grib files and they are actually shown in the list of grib files, but is is then impossible to "tick" the box to make them active. Again, it specifically seems to be a problem with the Harmony model (which I use a lot....)  and not other models
The grinb files aren't corrupt or anything, the are usable in other Navigation software programs.
Thaks for your help.
