Hey Terd,
Time at night is easier and more positive than day time. If you don't know; the tail of the Little Dipper rotates around the North Star each 24 hours. You can only see this AT NIGHT. I see you've haven't stood many night time watch at sea. |

Scotty,
The Earth rotates one revolution a day, making the Sun appear to be moving across the sky (360 degrees divided by 24 equals = 15 degrees a hour) 15 degrees equals a closed fist three at arms length. So now tell me how you time a three minute egg by the Sun? |
