Ship Log Overview

Entering Ship Log Data
The video below covers the entry of log data into the Ship Log workbook during a voyage.
Creating a Waypoint Route
This video shows how to create a route based on a series of waypoints.  I made another typo in entering one of the waypoints in this route.  See if you can catch the error.  I have added validation code in version 9.95c, which should prevent this kind of typo from getting into the route.
Creating a Great Circle Route
The program can also be used to create a Great Circle route as demonstrated in the next video.  The route generated is actually a psuedo Great Circle as it is made up of a number of rhumb line segments between waypoints.
Exporting a Route
The next video demonstrates the exporting of a route from OffShoreNavigationVBA into a file that can be imported by another program or a chart plotter.
Importing a Route
The program can also import a route from a file created by another program or chart plotter
