Hi, I'm looking for the wind speed parameter, in the sea dialog it seems to be missing.

Yes, looks like it got missed, but only in the UI, so if you would like to use it right away, you can make a minor edit to mx.seadialog.js.min, found in the maxwell/html/js folder (in the SU Plugins folder). If you open mx.seadialog.js.min in a text editor, you'll find where there is this statement:

n.wind_direction=n.windPanel.addControl(new mx.ScalarBar(t.wind_direction))

All you need to do is copy this, paste a copy in front, separated by a comma, and change "wind_direction" to "wind_speed", such that you will then have this:

...,n.windPanel=n.addControl(new mx.Expando("Wind",!1,!1)),n.wind_speed=n.windPanel.addControl(new mx.ScalarBar(t.wind_speed)),n.wind_direction=n.windPanel.addControl(new mx.ScalarBar(t.wind_direction)),n.weight_against...

It's not difficult, and you can always re-run the installer in the event that something goes wrong, but still, you may prefer to make a quick copy of the .js file, first. After making the edit, you should have a Speed slider in the Wind panel of the Sea UI, and it should work fine.

Thanks Mr Hill what a great response even on a Sunday ! I'm a bit daunted by this, but i'll give it a try.

This is fixed in the 3.0.15 build.
