That is me. I had set a course to the east for 4 hours, then south after that. I overstood the layline by about one hour. This game does not allow you to program beyond one tack. I also forgot to put the sails on auto. After that I went sailing for 3 days on the ocean and that was that. i lost 11,000 spots, but had a great sail. the wind speeds picked up as I went east and that put me beyond the layline to tack and make the mark. I will have to figure out how to handle this game when I am away from a computer for more than 12 hours.
