Display the roadbook

ou can display 2 types of roadbooks:

  • Directly on the screen: press the button to obtain a synthetic view of the selected routing.

  • In the menu, go down to the Weather routing section, press the Roadbook button.

    • The first tab displays global data and some routing statistics:

      • Finish time, duration, start time
      • Finish and start coordinates
      • Distance of the route and average speed over ground
      • Rhumb line bearing, great circle line distance and comparison with the distance on the route
      • Max, min and average wind speed on the route
      • Average true wind angle
      • Polar used with its efficiencies
      • Wind and Current grib file used
      • Land avoidance parameter
      • Eventually, mixed routing parameters and time motoring.
    • The bottom part of the roadbook lists all the waypoints and the course parameters:
      • Start time of isochrone
      • Position
      • Distance to cover and travel time. This time is generally equal to the routing time step unless you have to make a tack or gybe during this isochrone
      • Ground speed and ground heading (SOG/SOG), possibly to engine
      • Real wind speed and direction (TWS/TWD), that of the grib file
      • Surface wind angle (AWA), calculated from the actual wind from the grib file and modified by the current
