Massive detour.
This is where the weather routing's going to help us to decide how much of
a detour to take.
Do we go all the way around like this or
do we go closer in here, try to cut the corner?
That's what we're going to use the software for.
First of all, I'm going to get rid of this and
then I'm going to make a few way-points.
What is a waypoint?
A waypoint is a point along the way.
We can either go to the waypoint, or
we can leave it to the left or to the right, to port or starboard.
And it helps us to sort of give a shape to the route we want to take.
We know we want to go into the Southern Ocean.
This is a fairly good entry point.
Let's roughly aim at that.
It's not a point we have to reach, right, it's not like a mark in a port, or
something like that.
It is a rough place we want to go,
just to make the computer think that we want to go that way, more or less.
All right, we can move this later on, it's just a start.
So, on this waypoint, I know that if I start here, and
I don't have a weather forecast that goes all the way here,
the routing will probably send me over here somewhere.
So maybe I have to help a little bit and force it towards the west.
Right, so I'll put another waypoint in at the equator, where's the equator?
All right, here we can see 20, 0, 20.
Equator is here, and I think over here is a good start
to put a waypoint in, create a waypoint here.
