What do yellow vessel names mean in Freeboard?
Some vessels' names show up yellow on the map. What does that mean?

Can you provide a screenshot of what you are experiencing as vessel name color will be the same for all vessels.
The only way to change the color of text to yellow is by selecting the "invert feature text color" button which will apply to ALL vessels.
All boats start out yellow when I open freeboard-sk and become black over time.

That looks like a bug.
They are yellow to start because the "invert colour" button is selected.
They should remain yellow.

Hi. Just noticed from your screenshot we sail the same lake. Nice to meet you?
Hello. Though I've moved on to Weymouth by now.
Hi,
Have searched for a schema for colors on vessels in documentation with little luck...
my screen indicates that:
Tankers are blue
Cargo ships are green
Passenger ships are yellow
Tugs and Pilot ships are grey
Is this documented somewhere where I failed to find it?
