Hello,
Just see this youtube video where the speak about a Windy addon/pluggin developp by a a sailor Leo Legrand, to show boat position and routes on windy :
-
If it's a matter of finding the ftp access, this link to the sailing instructions in english contains the login information.
-
@Hydroscope FTP server is also in the instructions: ftp.geovoile.net
-
FTP server is also in the instructions: ftp.geovoile.net
They have also an HTTP url with all the 40 positions:

Hi,
Instead of a screenshot of this video, that would be more useful to provide its URL. -
@idefix37
Here is the URL
At 25'50", they mention the sailor Leonard Legrand (who I believe is part of the Sodebo Ultim team, on standby for the Trophee Jules Verne) -
Thank you !
They have developed a plugin displaying the position of the boats and their track and ECWMF or GFS forecasts.
Then they have added a routing feature (Adrena)
At least they mention and show the Windy name and logo. -
On this YouTube video Chris Pratt said the skippers use Windy a lot on board as they are all equipped with broadband internet connection.
-
in the video, Chris Pratt says the name of the API is "Gradian" or "Gradient" maybe?

Hi all,
I'm waiting for the administrators' approval for the version 2024 of the plugin I worked on 4 years ago. Because of the changes made by Windy on the plugin system since then, it is not yet as advance as last time, but I'm will try to improve it on a regular basis :)

@kbsali dfg . I've just installed it, that's perfect ! Thank you so much !

@kbsali
Merci Kevin -
@kbsali I dont see it in the "Windy plugins" list. Should it appear there or do I have to download it from a different URL ?
-
@Paspox Windy's admins need to validate its publication, until then you can load it with this url https://windy-plugins.com/2427993/windy-plugin-regadata-tracker/1.0.2/plugin.min.js
See the screenshot :
unfortunately this is not ideal as I will update the plugin regularly and its url will change on every new version published :/

@kbsali it works, thanks a lot !
When you update, will you post the new URL on this feed ? -
@Paspox the plugin has been validated and published, you will find it in the list of plugins.
Unfortunately, every time I update it, we will have to wait for its publication by the admins...K. Saliou

Hi Kevin,
Is the Report date in UTC time ? Or at local time of the user in Windy?
-
@kbsali UTC, i'll try to fix that
-
@kbsali Mega job, Kevin. Thanks a lot! You might want to join our plugin developers channel on Slack, where you
can get in touch with our dev team. May I send you an invite? If so, please send me an email address to DM. -
Hello!
@kbsali Very nice work, thank for publishing this plugin !
I didn't know someone was working on a plugin already so I created my own very quickly last week-end.
Not sure it is suitable for publication though because I grabbed some material from VG website, especialy skipper images.
But anyway if someone is interested, the sources are available here:
