I'm happy to report that Sailwave is working perfectly with 1.3.35. One old bug in Sailwave compatibility also seems to be fixed - the program was calling sserife.fon which was failing, causing vertical bars in some menus and text boxes. The work-around was to remove the sserife.fon file, which fixed the problem for Sailwave, but probably broke other applications.

It appears now that menus display properly, without removal of sserife.fon. This definitely takes Sailwave to platinum status.

Thanks to everyone for your help getting this program working. There are a lot of sail race officials out there who can now use this program on Linux again. The application developer, who offers the program for free, has a renewed interest in ensuring that future releases of his program continue to be compatible with WINE.
