If that's the criterion, then the North Pole is a good reference point.

the starting point is no longer a reference point once you are moving, because
you no longer know where it is in relation to where your boat is.

this ain't hard stuff, dood. every pilot on the planet knows it.

absolutely not. DR has no reference points in it, and I have never stated
that
it does.

In that case, you best look up "reference point". The starting point of
a DR plot is generally at a known reference point and it can easily be
said that the ending point of your DR is also a reference point.

LOL Why is it, every time I open a Jax post now, my computer starts
playing the music from "Twilight Zone"?
