In what way are you having problems?

Is it a technical issue - such as computer crashing or are you sinking it?

Ok, if you're talking about the mission where you're out in the sea of Moh Koh Phi Phi island I have not finnished that mission either, when I get to last stoppage point, and stop, the mission doesn't end, I've tried this many times and no matter how close I get to the bouy, it won't register, is that what problem you're having?

P.S this really should be in techinical support

This means that you are oversteering.  You need to give the ship a little helm, then wait to see what happens before doing anything else.

Then, as you get near the course you want to steer, you take the helm off until, shortly before you are on course, you actually steer for a litttle in the opposite direction (no more than about 5 deg. of rudder).  With a little practice, it will work out.  Vessels are not like cars -- they keep turning after you straighten out the wheel.  ;D

As to the final mooring point -- it seems as though you are right on top of the waypoint, but you aren't really.  You need to be maybe .01 nm from it before you can moor.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Michael

It is a mooring buoy, you have clicked the mooring button when you reach it haven't you?
