I have had this before. Restarting SK and clearing the route clears it.

Interesting.
I used to have a similar issue regarding moving the waypoint where it would cause the autopilot to choke. It had always worked with my old Yacht Devices YDWG-02 as the connection.
I cannot say what changed in SignalK to fix that. Seems to me that a straight NMEA0183 connection would be less prone to errors. Mine has to go through the SK-to-NMEA2000 converter, as my AP is n2k (seatalkng, actually, but same thing), but it works well. Only thing I can think of I may have changed was the Derived Data route settings I added into the SK mix. I'll have to check later when I get home to see which ones those were. Did you upgrade to OpenCPN 5.6.2 and SK 1.42?
