As I said, I am not a world sailor. I rely on GPS and an accurate compass
to
take me home.

enjoy, john. and don't worry about it, for in today's world there is no
reason
not to have a gps or two onboard if there is any remote chance of needing
it.

Thanks for the thread JAX. I am enjoying this one. Amazing what one can
learn!
