Default Huh? Diesel engines don't last 800 hours before major repairs??

we have a start, don't we?

actually, many, many, many writers have said the very same thing I said. It
is perhaps less of an issue today because gps's can be had for under a hundred
bucks, new.

guys, you can argue idiocy all you want, but it does not change the fact

that
"dead" as used the context of navigation is incorrect usage as to what the

word
"dead" means.



Tell ya what you do ..... start writing letters to all those writers and
publishers of books, on the subject of navigation; all the marina
operators; port authorities; sailors, etc., and tell them JAXAshby says
the are to henceforth use only the term "ded reckoning" when discussing
"DR" and that it only applies to speed/time/heading.
Come back in a couple years and let us know how your campaign is going .....
