I'm terrible at estimating distances when anchoring. How far am I
from the shore, from a boat, from those rocks or that mark?

Recently, I've noticed a number of relatively inexpensive laser
distance finders designed for golfers.

Has anyone tried these while sailing? Anything to report?

Why not enter the rock, shore, boat or mark (ok the boat could be tricky but
delete as appropriate) as a waypoint into a GPS
