I'm sitting down below on Jaga, finishing a fine ale and listening to the BBC over wifi. The wind is howling, but it's nice and toasty inside. I'm monitoring whats going on outside on MacENC, connected to my instruments wirelessly via a bluetooth multiplexer and nmea.
What I'm wishing is that I could record the wind speed/direction rather than just note it when I look at it. Is there a piece of software that could take the nmea data stream and record the wind speeds, possibly putting it into a graph? Being able to do that with boat speed and maybe depth could also be interesting and possibly useful. Seems I've seen this somewhere but couldn't find it.
Just dreaming.
