And, of course as you who use them know, but others might not, the sextant is good at sunset or sunrise when you can identify the star and horizon, or at noon, while the GPS gives you accuracy so great that the pencil line on the chart is too broad to note it. Love of a beautiful thing does count for a lot!! Jesse
