Plotting curvi linear grids

Hello

I've been one of those loking forward to the feature of plotting
curvi-linear grids being implemented in ncl. So when I realised it was
in 4.2.0.a026 I downloaded and installed and tried to plot the
bathymetry of the North Sea (the curvi-linear grid was generated using
the seagrid program).

I could not make it work....

Here is the output of running the attached script on the data file also
provided:
