I some legs, whenever possible, I provide automatic logic for the boat to obey the marks.
I this particular leg the gate is not implemented, because it's of the 'go there and back' type, and that's hard to do in the general case. If the goal was 'keep Madeira to port while going to Rio' I would have added some kind of constraint.
BUT:
1) The constraint is somehow stupid and looks like "don't cross the latitude of Madeira before crossing the longitude of Madeira". That would work with the current weather, but there are possible scenarios where you cross the line and then go back North.
2) Some players like sailing alternative races, like go to the North pole, go to Cape Town without following any gates or go around the world via the Suez channel.
So that checkbox gives you the freedom to get rid of the limitations set by me (and the game itself)
