Route second waypoint issue
#1
When activating a route and enabling the autopilot with the Pypilot OpenCPN plugin, the autopilot is successfully enabled.
The green line points directly at the first closest waypoint and the tiller does it's job.

However, when passing the first waypoint, the green line points to a whole other direction than it's supposed to be. Not exactly the opposite number of degrees, but always the opposite direction.

I don't know what the cause is here, I don't suppose it has anything to do with my compass because it is a GPS course.
I suspect it has something to do with the OpenCPN connections, maybe the Pypilot TCP output has a faulty priority or maybe I am sending the wrong sentences?

Hope you can help me out!

The sentences that I forward to Pypilot are:
APB,ECRMB,ECRMC,ECAPB,ECRMB,ECRMC,ECAPB

Somehow in the list there are duplicates?
