Version 1.73 restores some functionality lost in 1.72 and adds some new functionality.  A "GPS Position" mark will be created automatically when a GPS is connected, assuming this has been selected in the preferences.  Any mark named "GPS Position" will be constantly moved to the current reported GPS position.  A route point can be moved to the current GPS position, using the point edit menu in edit mode.  Users can select whether or not the GPS track is created automatically.

Version 1.72 corrects several bugs.  Fixed bug that would on rare occasions cause the program to route over land.  Fixed bugs that occurred when multiple marks have the same name.  This is permitted, but when a race is saved to a GPX, if two marks with the same name are used as references in route points, then the names will be made unique by appending integers.  The GPS position will no longer be saved in race files as a mark. It disappears when the GPS connection is severed.

Version 1.71 corrects a bug that would cause a "expected floating point but got """ error when opening the route manager with a new route.

Version 1.70 has a rewritten optimizer that runs substantially faster but still computes the same winning routes.  Some additional flexibility in displaying times has also been added.

 The automatic download and installation function is not working in versions before 1.52, although the program will misleadingly act like it is.   It will download the update to your TEMP directory, but not install it.  You can either install it yourself, by navigating to the TEMP directory (often <user>/AppData/local/temp) and double clicking on bluewater_lite.exe, or downloading it yourself from this website and launching it.
