I'd agree, but its still useful to observe the amount of set on the compass. If you don't
practice in daylight, how do you know how to do it in the haze?

Oh, come on Neal,

You're pushing it. In clear daylight on similar waters, if you're being
set you tack. The compass doesn't prevent being set. Line of sight is a
better technic than compass offset.
