I'm pretty sure you are hitting this with cases I never tried, and who knows it may even have problems in the other hemisphere (east of 0)
I do intend to fix this plugin. There is so much more it can do, like following a route in wind mode and computing tacks/jibes and displaying future tack predictions.
Thanks for all your efforts Sean, without Pypilot I would be much shorter on cash and I would never have brushed up on my linux and soldering...

When you do get around to working on this plugin, I think this would be the perfect place to add in precanned (but configurable) turns for trolling?
say 4 options 90 deg turn port/starboard and 180 deg turn port/starboard. the configurable part would simply be the turn radius.
