shen, stay out of this discussion. the basics are way beyond you. next, you
will be telling us *you* wondered around a rocky channel in a fog with just a
compass and a knotmeter and used your incredible skill to get very lucky and
not hit anything therefore you were not lucky at all.

same same arguement used by drunk drivers.

Been trying to come up with an intelligent response for quite a bit of time, I
see.
Maybe you should have thought some more, cause ya didn't make it.
Read all the manuals, books, etc., you want jaxass, but until you get out there
and actually use that stuff, all you'll be is someone who can quote
definitions.
Never "wondered" around a rocky channel with compass and "knotmeter" in fog.
However, used to frequently run a winding channel in fog with a compass, tach,
and watch, with no problems .... does that count?
