      Hi

      Just so you know if I make my passage using the toll distance&planification as a boat, I haven t got the same wind and waves directions as if I check each way pont on the map without using the tool.

      There might an easy explanation from your side but I can t understand

        @captain-jacozami Hello, would you please explain where do you see the different wind direction? Do you mean wind bards? Those are adjustable.

          Hi Captain,

          Have you set the wind reference direction to North up? Otherwise you don’t get the same wind direction in the Route planner and in the map.
          See:

          And this case that is not a bug
