Kiel in, Kiel Out????

Hello fellow Kaleuns...
Last night I tried for the first time to use the autopltting feature to get out and in the Kiel Canal, but it does't seem to work the way it is supposed to.

For sure I am doing something wrong.

I followed the instructions found in another thread with almost the same name, but no luck.
When I leave Kiel, I plot the course the green waypoint, and then I click on the Kiel Out order, but it draws the course SSE and sometimes the course is plotted in the right direction, but some waypoins are on land. I do this before moving an inch from the dock, but no pisitive result yet.
Same story when I am on my way back to Kiel.
Could you please be so kind to give me a hand with this, since it's kind of tedious tracing the course every time I start a new patrol?
Thanks a lot for your unvaluable help.
