yeah. well over the knee hasn't crashed yet, so it must be true, right?

ROFLMAO

Ahhhh jaxass, you're always good for a laugh!!

You can't argue any point as to what "DR" is or might be, so you go off
running in circles yelling "physics, physics".
You know nothing about applying set and drift or how it may be
determined, so you claim "astrology,astrology".
You might be qualified to navigate in LI sound in daylight with
unlimited visibility within a mile of the beach, but never offshore, as
you've proven you can't even safely round Hatteras with a couple of GPS's.

BTW Yer right, I haven't crashed yet and I've been doin it fer about 45
years .....course, even idiots like you can do it nowadays .... as long
as you have enough spare gps receivers and batteries and don't lose the
signal for some reason..... then again, mebbe not.

Ahhhh well, enough jaxnonsense for this weekend.

Now, now, jax .... don't get yer spandex speedo in an uproar .....
simply stated, you just don't know enough about actual navigation to
have the ability to carry on an intelligent discussion on the subject.
BTW, next time you look up "dead reckoning", "ded reckoning", "deduced
reckoning", read the whole definition.
Although I doubt you'll be able to comprehend the possibilities .......

oh, ah, DR means doctor, doesn't it? or Dominican Republic? or Donna Rogers
(as in stripper)? or dumb rummy, as in over the knee

No, not you. I just wondered if he knew what the letters stood for? I
missed the initial part of this and for whatever reason the provider won't
give them up when I sign on.

over the knee, **if** you have known references point **then** you are not
deducing anything at all about where you are.

why are you being such a dumb cluck?

Of course DR requires a known reference point. If you weren't so convinced
navigation is impossible without a GPS you might learn how it works.

jeff, if you have a known reference (sic) point, then you are not deducing
anything at all.

knowing the direction you are pointing and your speed through the water gives
you no known reference (sic) points at all. none.

btw, "known reference points" is a double redundancy saying the same thing over
again twice. reference points are by definition known. if you don't know what
they are and where they are they are not a reference point.

Of course DR requires a known reference point. If you weren't so convinced
navigation is impossible without a GPS you might learn how it works.

jeffies, virtually every last pilot in the country with a valid license is
laughing at you. "flying blind" is illegal, and has been for seven some
decades, and for good reason. All pilots know that and know why.

you have changed the definition of DR to that of "pilotage", as in going from
one known landmark to the next.
