On the west coast, the WAAS birds are only about 15 degrees above
the horizon, so it's really easy to loose them on land. The good news
is that they stay locked up well on the ocean, at least in the Monterey
area. As long as your GPS has a clear view to the southwest, it
should work fine.

Travel direction isn't relevant, except as it might make part of the
boat hide the bird.

You learn something new everyday - I didn't know that.

Interesting - thanks.
