A fact I only discovered when, after five minutes of carefully plotting a course through the Kiel Canal and setting forth, my boat unceremoniously rammed a pier in Kiel while I was below, talking to the cook. The watch crew did not deign to notify me of the looming peril, or indeed say anything at all until after I'd managed to hike back through the control room and up both ladders to see what we'd struck. My fault for failing to verify that we were actually following a plotted course, but either courses lain on the briefing map should persist or you shouldn't be able to lay one.
