Here a southwest wind is offshore (no-go)
At these spots a southwest wind blows off the land and pushes you onto open water if something goes wrong: Muiderberg (IJmeer), Enkhuizen (IJsselmeer), Dagebüll, Schillig, Oléron (Plaisance), Le Barcarès (Les Dosses). How Windulu judges wind direction and safety is explained on the method page.
