Binoculars
"Dave" wrote in message ... Second, I find them useful during the day for a great deal other than sight seeing. Locating aids to navigation before they're visible to the naked eye; reading buoy numbers and otherwise identifying aids to navigation well in advance; detecting the angle on the bow of approaching vessels; looking for whether there's an anchor line from the bow of that powerboat just off the bow; getting a feel for the speed of commercial traffic--does it have a bone in its teeth; seeing ranges like the center span of the bride and the submarine escape tower that shows the center of the channel in New London; etc. etc. Right you are. Of course I'm not one of those navigators who thinks navigation consists of turning on an electronic display and gluing my eyes to it. YMMV. Of course. |
