there seems to be an error in the either the latitude/longitude selection or the specified coordinates themselves.
The instructions say to land on the beach on the east coast of Skagitt bay between "latitudinal" "122 deg 24 min to 122 deg 33 min".
Latitudes do not go beyond 90 degrees, so I am assuming the error is longitudinal verses latitudinal.
The only problem with that is it indicates the west coast, not the east coast.
Somewhat confusing.

Ok, I think the 122 deg 24 to 33 min is correct and should be on the beach just southeast of La Conner on the sectional?

"Eastern Shore" is correct. The coordinates verbiage should correctly read: "between latitudinal coordinates N48° 15' and N48° 26.5'" This picture depicts the correct landing zone.

I have got it working now, needed to have "download winds aloft" checked under display settings/weather.
FSE forums not working?
