Questions about Expedition features » Is an asymmetric VMC calculation possible? » 8/11/2022 5:26 am

Scenario:  Offshore distance race.  On starboard downwind, the wave set is such that the helmsman has a hard time maximizing polar boatspeed.  But on port, the helmsman is ripping down waves, with 15% higher average polar boatspeed.  In a static symmetrical polar environment, the favored VMC course might be calling for a starboard jibe.  But intuitively we know in this asymmetrical situation, if port is un-favored by just a few degrees the large increase in boatspeed compensates for the less favored course.

I understand we can tick the box for asymmetric port and starboard polar numbers for use when calculating optimal routes.  But, Is it possible to use asymmetric polar values for calculating live VMC calculations? 

Thanks,
Hats

Thanks Ernie, I've tried multiple Saildoc queries up different avenues with no luck.  I feel a bit better knowing it's not just me.

As of last night I had no issues manually querying Saildocs via email for the Yellowbrick txt file update (https://yb.tl/transpac2021-expedition.txt).  Over the last few hours I have been getting no email replies from Saildocs.  Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?  I've tried requesting other items from Saildocs via email to no avail, is it me or system wide?

Thanks,
Mark

Hello, new to expedition.  Question regarding updating software (I'm currently on v11.9.6):

1.  I click on "Check for Updates"
2.  A window pops up saying "Expedition v11.10.8.0 is now available.  Continue to www.epeditionMarine.com"
3.  I click on yes to continue
4.  I takes me to a "404 - Page not Found"

Is there a workaround?

Thanks
