    H5000 TWA leeway correction

    I turned on Leeway Corrected Wind  via the H5000 websocket. The subsequent log file showed TWD wobble of about 17 degrees.

    Is this what one would expect?

    Re: H5000 TWA leeway correction

    If I read you correctly, 17 degrees does seem a large variation, even allowing for the lines of a B40.  What leeway coefficient did you put in, and where did you get it from?
