Dear LSH3-friends,
sometimes the question appears, how to use the "Autoplot"-function within LSH3 to navigate from Kiel to Brunsbüttel. Therefore we designed this manual to show the accurate way to steer to the navigation points and how to use the Autoplot-function to plot the course through the KWK-canal.



We did not include a guidance how to pass through the lock gates, because the postion of the last waypoint in front of the first gate and the speed with which the Kaleun approaches the gates differs to much.
Furthermore the gates of Kiel/Holtenau and Wilhelmshaven (both differ just slightly) compared to the gates of St. Nazaire which are definitively much shorter.
Additionally there is are further instructions necessary for the Type XXI due to its higher speed.
Therefore we only can give the following advice:
- PRACTICES MAKES PERFECT
- LESS (Speed) OFTEN IS MORE

Regards Blueduck
