GPS-an honest answer...?
 

How many of you rely on your GPS without consulting charts these days?
How many of you back that up by using a handheld compass?
No judgements, and I'm sure some will get on a high horse after lying
about it. Just curious.

My GPS has no mapping feature. I must use maps and charts to figure out
where I am from GPS UTC or Long/Lat.

I'm too cheap to buy on of those fancy GPS anyway.

I use paper charts all the time, and a compass doing DR's. Then block
numbers.

If anyone does, they shouldn't admit it.

I don't know him, but I'm really not doing chartering through an
established company, so I'm not that well connected.

Yeah, I was thinking of removing it, but a couple of people thought it
was pretty funny.
