sensor. The Manual option calculates the laylines using
manually entered windward and leeward angles. The
Polar Table option calculates the laylines based on the
imported polar table data

angle, enter a higher number. For laylines that display
a higher sensitivity to changes in the boat's heading or
true wind angle, enter a lower number.
