    LOG UNITS

    I need to clarify the units used on logs for BelowLine and TimetoGun. I assume BelowLine are nautical miles but from gps antenna or bow?
    TimeToGun are seconds? how could I convert to an easy view countdown? changing format from excel?
    I am trying to export some logged data to video overlays datas....
    Thanks.

    StartDistBelowLine is the minimum of the bow and stern positions below the line in nm.

    TimeToGun will be in days.

    Great. Another one: the latitude and longitude of a pinned mark recorded in the day’s event file represent the position of the mark relative to the bow (provided that option is enabled in your settings).

    It isn't bow dependent - it is the position of the mark.
