OK I'm now at the western entance of the canal where that port is and I almost ran right into the coastline at extreme speed.

I'm not only wet but dead.

Why were you using extreme speed? to me any vessel entering a harbor, canal, channel, lock, etc. would not be using any kind of fast speed for safety reasons.

I was at a standstill when I activated the script. I went at extreme speed and then submerged (?). Yeah, it's behaving weird.

Seems you did a goooood job, Trevally. I'll definitely test your scripts when coming back to port next time. You put impressive amount of effort to release it too - thank you.

Thanks to TDW as well for obvious reasons.

Thanks AvM

Anything you notice needing improved would be welcome.

I am going to test and try and find out what Davy is seeing. I had tested countless times at different speeds & TC etc. The only time anything went wrong was when TC was over 128. I did not test extreme speed much either.

Perhaps I need to explain better how it should be used

If anyone else is finding problems, please let me know.

Thanks all for your patience.

See post 1 for new version 2.1

This was due to a bad coordinate in both Canal nav files.

I had intended to run the boat close to shore after exit of canal as a joke

My error was that this might be funny first time, but not every time.
If boat is at extreme speed it may be too close.
I also repeated the coordinate in the inbound nav file - I did not intend to do this.

V2.1 removes this bad coordinate from both.

Sorry everyone
