GPS should still be able to give lat/long, which can be found on the
paper chart. (At no point have I said that nav aids should be a
substitute for the traditional tools, to the extent that the latter
should be left ashore.)


Ask Bob what his coordinate system is set at.... let alone how to
interpolate that data onto a chart. He has no clue as to chart datum
and wouldn't comprehend UTM from Lat/Lon.... seconds, minutes and
degrees are greek to him..... yet he uses a GPS.


Duh...., okay...
