Computed table of courses for the Transfer Trip.
These are not the actual courses run, but were constructed
by calculating the true course and distance between major
waypoints of the trip. The times shown are approximate, and
are while close, are not the actual times of arrival or
departure from the waypoints.
They give an estimate of the distance sailed and speed
made good on all the major legs of the voyage. There is
additional time and distance to be sailed from the
marina or anchorage to the starting waypoint, and
from the finish waypoint to the marina or anchorage.
These legs add approximately 0.5 hours to each end of the
day's sailing.
