Real boat management

De VlmWiki

First create a real boat

  • In the menu 'Boat->Account management>New' select real boat instead of VLM boat. Choose a name then OK.
  • In the menu 'Boat->boat parameter', select eventually the GPS port number and speed and select a polar(if you don't have one for your boat you need to use something similar or create a new one).
  • You can tune the polar efficiency.
  • You can also specify if routing and route modules should use engine if the speed of the boat becomes less than a parameter.
  • You real boat panel looks like this:
