Back home from patrol 4. Nothing happened, but still a thrilling experience...

Now to finish this waypoint thing. The last waypoint is placed just east of Helgoland, like this

The "Helgoland Mark" is for testing purpose only... it doesn't matter where you save.

Save/exit SH3 and the saved [savedname].map file has waypoints like this:

[Waypoint]
PointsNb=2
Pt0=930702.80,6485124.90,-3.64
Pt1=970963.00,6484627.50,0.00

Keep the saved Pt0 waypoint (ships position) and replace with this list:

Save the map-file and after loading SH3, it should now look like this:

and you will have points all the way into Kiel harbour with nose pointed at home quay

The reason for me using time on this, is I know I'll have Kiel as homebase for a long time still. Probably will use Wilhemshaven some times as a refuel station, but the next couple of year Kiel it is...

Btw. thanks for the great pictures! Looking forward to meet "Big Sister" in the Canal

Re. GWX, a quick calculation shows that - with my current speed - I'm ready for it in august 2008...
