OK, wally. Do as you please. I think Suzanne is doing it correctly,
leaving the electronic crutches for when she has an instinctive grasp
of real nav skills.
Until then, you are sailing with navigational resources that are, at best,
'semi-skilled'? No wonder you guys spend your time banging into rocks!
As for doing as I please, it is my pleasure to learn the traditional skills.
I do have a hand-held GPS with which I am familiar, but no radar, no fancy
chart-plotter or any of the 'electronic crutches' that you admit your boat
is festooned with. In fact, given that I already had the GPS, since taking
up sailing, my only investment in navigational equipment has been the
traditional tools and the means of teaching myself to use them.
