Exactly Nick
I Import the Vendee file with the Maxsea type with Sail tab/Tracking/Import (not YBTracking)
and the boat file as another Import Identifiant.txt one time only
then load the RSHR file with the standard SailTab/YB Tracking/rolexs2h2024 with Update Boat IDs ticked one time only
The resulting Boat list has all boats which I sorted using the Class column marked either VG or SH
To view either race you need a Marks/Route active for the race you want to see and on the boats list a boat in that race marked as 'Reference'
To switch races make the Marks/Route active for that race and on the boats list make a boat in that race marked as 'Reference'
Tracking results normal using Sail tab/Tracking for just the race you're working at that time.
Works a treat!

Try right clicking the window and switch to 'floating'
put it where you want
then click 'docking'
or when in 'floating' mode look for faint icons for left right top bottom and drag the cursor ove the desired icon

Below is the text for the boat ID file for the Maxsea tracking file
It's called identifiant.txt and is in unformatted text with no heading.
Import it as Maxsea named identifiant.txt
It's basically the 'sail numbers' and the display field which I chose to be the skippers name.
In some instances a sail number was on two boats and they adjusted as needed ie 5 and 5005
Let me know if you have any questions

Thanks Nick!
Quite a bit less work
As you said I also had to build a boatid file, identifiant.txt
Seem to be working well

For those interest in an exercise!
The file for positions (daily):
The file is NOT in expedition format but can be manipulated with MSExcel or Open Office or if you're lots better than myself with macros...
The first column is the 'Position in fleet'
The second col is the 'boat number'
It uses semi-colons vs commas for Exp
Lat/Long is N/S E/W vs '-W/-S'
Date is '11/30/24 17:30' vs '2411301730'
By using the online position report and the file you can derive the 'boat number' (eg Dalin is 24) and build a Boat ID file
Other threads cover how to load them in Exp
Cheers,
Ernie

I'm not sure how it was before but if you tick 'Extend Wind in Time' it will run through.
Looking at the ;results; you will see the MSLP column goes blank when the forecast ends.

Did you look under "PING" in the righthand marks list?
