Thanks for the info & the links, Peter.

I'm not sure I understand this- you can tell your GPS to ignore or put
less priority on certain satellites? That would be a very cool feature.

It's amazing how many people have no idea how to navigate without GPS...
a lot of people who use to know are so out of practice that they are
functionally lost without it.

On our last trip, a relatively short river jaunt of a few days (rudely
interrupted by H. Bonnie and H. Charley), we were rather sloppy for the
first day and had a lot of household junk piled on the chart table. When
I realized I couldn't lay out a course, I threw it all on the floor (I
was in a hurry, I cleaned it up myself later). We had a "serious" talk
about the unwisdom of sloppy practices... the arriving hurricanes later
in the week emphasized this!
