Wind direction vs boat bearing on route planner
-
This travel + weather planner (weather conditions at location X in the future while traveling) is excellent!
Could a field be added that shows the apparent wind angle? As bearing and wind direction are known this would be easily calculated and very useful to plan a sailing trip!
Thanks guys for this awesome project!!!

You could have a look at this thread.
The apparent wind is not provided in Route planner feature, but this thread shows you can select a setting that displays the true wind direction relative to the boat heading.
Then I heard that Route planner is going to be improved. Perhaps apparent wind will be added directly as a field in the table…
Just a note: you can click on the distance units to display the route in nautical miles (NM).
