Sail List has accidental sails
I was creating a sail chart for my boat and I ran into an issue. I accidentally created a sail chart with the TWA at the bottom of the chart. This broke the sail list by including the angles as a sail which makes sense. What I don't understand is how to get rid of these phantom sails. Any advice is much appreciated.
Troubleshooting steps attempted:
Removed offending sail list
Force quit and reopened sail list
Reinstalled Expedition

The sail list is saved in the database.
There are two options - start a new database or edit the existing one with (eg) DB Browser for SQLite, link on the Exp resources web page.

Re: Sail List has accidental sails
Thx that worked.
Solution:
Install DB Browser
Close Expedition
Navigate to the Expedition Folder
Your folder structure may very: C:\ProgramData\Expedition\database
Search for the file named Expedition.db
Then open in DB Browser
Using the top options switch from Database Structure to Browse Data
In Browse Data switch the Table to SAIL from ATTR
Highlight the offending sails then use the "Delete Current Record" Button at the top
Refresh the data in the table using the Refresh Button
Then finally write the changes to the file up at the top using "Write Changes"
Close the database and restart expedition
