Same question but for downwind. For a given route, Expedition may be showing a recommended TWA that is deeper than the boat's Target TWA.

For example - downwind Target TWA  at say 17 kts TWS is 144, but the router is displaying 165 (with or without parentheses). Why is the router displaying deeper than polar targets?

Just updated to 11.15.9 and now my only options for mark rounding are Sail to Mark and Gate.

Did I miss something?

I wonder if anyone has an easy process for merging multiple days of Logs into one large file for retrospective review. Excel cut and paste seems like the only vehicle I know of but is a bit ungainly for the large cell ranges

It looks like something has changed in a recent update (besides adding a new /database sub directory for expedition.mdb). I used to simply rename the mdb to expeditionold.mdb and that would clear the boats from tracking,  but that doesn't seem to do the trick anymore. Any direction? i  don't like parsing through hundreds of boats not in a current race

Using YB and iGo works, but its a bit of laborious effortthere might be an easier way):1) In Airmail, open the email from YB, cut ONLY the raw schedule data, and paste into NotePad. Save the notepad file to folder PositionReport (assuming boatid.csv is kept here) as RawScheds.txt 2) open the RawScheds.txt file with excel. Excel will have a text import wizzard and you want to select ‘delimited’ and ‘comma seperated’ when prompted - then finish. 3) the files should now be loaded in excel and be formatted in normal clean tables 4) save the files in CSV format(comma seperated files). The sched file should be scheds.csv & boat file as boatid.csv   One time only: "5) Within Expedition, go to SAIL menu/TRACKING. Make sure the format is EXPEDITION in the upper right.6) Click import and then load boatid.csv (only the FIRST time for each race)7) click 'edit boats' and chose some boat (ideally yours) as the reference boat"  8) Click IMPORT and then load scheds.csv

Nick - I tried numerous ways to find the issue.I  tested back up machines and had no issues so its something in my setup.  Artie had me drop the registry keys and the problem went away.
