He doesn't even know the variation has not completed a deviation table....
he uses the GPS.

| Great... I'd be happy to read where it says you should make several
passes
| before daring to enter the clearly marked harbour because your
| navigational
| expertise may be compared to a blind wombat on sedatives.
|
| | BTW, do you know what the entrance looks like at night?
|
| No.. but let's face it.. you claimed a mooring field and others who have
| been there remarked it was a busy harbour with clearly defined entry. I
| know
| enough to be able to identify a harbour at night.... painted on radar
and
| compare it to a chart to place myself within the GPS track to enter ...
| especially with a spot light to confirm the buoy numbers, shape and
| color...
| even drunk!
|
| Obviously this little exercise had you confused, confounded and
befuddled
| enough to require several passes! No wonder you dropped sail when
| approaching a marked channel in moderate breeze on a clear day! Oh
yeah..
| you're a whiz at this aren't you Bob!!
|
| Bwahahahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!

| BTW: I'm hoping you're having as much fun with this as I am! ;-)
