Nothing interesting new.

I’m just back to it after taking finishing the bird watching.

I’ve gone right back to the very start and starting again.
This is the first map I’ve drawn in Excel with Antarctic Islands.
Data without Antarctica and its islands from https://gnome.orr.noaa.gov/goods/tools/GSHHS/coast_extract with intermediate level resolution

The line is pretty thick. Are you using the latest spreadsheet, with the line weight set to a small number (less than 1 is OK)?

Good question. This isn’t the latest spreadsheet.
I just screendumped raw data line width 1 pixel. Let’s try again.

The first half-decent projection that I have.
I posted a cruder version of this before.

Arctic, Atlantic and part of Southern Ocean
Cassini Projection (Equidistant)

I like that one.

In spite of its focus on the wrong hemisphere and the wrong pole.
