[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1827441, member: 175845"] That's some nice interesting info Jake. Back in those days, and even when in Canada in the costal marine boating world after they had installed Coastal Navigation Differential or whatever it was called, some acquaintances had installed [I]this new thing called GPS[/I] on their 45 foot+ boat and were over full of confidence as they navigated through some narrow channels in the thick fog. Skipper was rather surprised when there was a horrendous crunch as the yacht hit the rocks. What they hadn't made any adjustment for was the fact that they had mounted the GPS antenna at the stern of the yacht, plus the fact that GPS wasn't quite as accurate in those days as it is now, even with the Coastal Navigation Differential stations enabled. - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
