GWX Kiel Canal Waypoints

VIICDriver · 12-18-06, 09:42 PM

OK found it under the navigators "search pattern" option.

Got the outbound course set without any issue and have set sail! Went ahead and plotted my patrol but the inbound course is not working exactly right. I set my last waypoint directly on the "Kiel Canal inbound waypoint" that is on the map in green. Then using the navigator search pattern option I selct Kiel Inbound and it does plot the course however it is off slightly and is more or less running on the banks of the canal.

Any help with that would be appreciated, Driving this Type IIA I expect it will be a few days before I am needing to plot the inbound! Plus plan on running this patrol when in enemy waters at 32X to see if this helps with the bombers hitting my boat before they are even spotted.
