I look at the sun in the AM and know that is the east. In the PM I look at
the sun and I know that is west.

I am close?

Here's the situation: You're 100 miles offshore and bailing to the
liferaft. You've become disoriented and have lost your bearings. You
reach for the GPS-12 and find it's DOA. Among your options is the sun
compass. Do you know how to make and use one?

In this scenario what good is any sort of compass going to do for you
Skipper?

Do you plan on trying to paddle a life raft 100 miles to shore against a
current?
