So waking this morning I had the brilliant idea of Voice control for Openplotter/pypilot along the lines of Alexa
IE "Boat Name Tack", or "Boat Name Steer course 346", and then on completion of manouver have it repeat back "steering course 346". plus at least twenty more commands. Maybe as a Depth voice repeater.
I can see this as being a real third hand on board and well in advance of Raymarine and B&G
Mad or what !!!

In a strong ambient noise (engine, wind, waves, gibb !) voice control could give unexpected results !
A joystick to control rudder and engine could be so classy !
Seriously I am also dreaming of a voice indication of depth to help dropping the anchor at the right point
They have that in planes to inform about remaining height under the wheels, don't they ?
I don't understand the need for internet connection in voice control
