Hi Zezo,

Any chance you could add a tool for the start of Leg 5 which assesses whether it's worth waiting for the pilot boat (which follows the Rhumb Line) to get ahead of the fleet (if they go off looking for wind), and only then joining the race thereby joining in the lead. Apparently, it's not cheating, it's 'Rules Engineering' !!!!

.... the PS was supposed to say "Great tool by the way" but I pressed Return too quickly.

Is that what happened? Sounds like that division of the Pacific Cup and other regattas, the Motor Sailing Division.
