Geee... I wish I could magically pull numbers out of my hat just like
you can.  It's so much easier than looking up the numbers and doing
the math.  Anyway, all your numbers are wrong (as usual).

Tom.  Did you ever find your degree in "navigation"?  I posted mine,
but you seem to have forgotten to reciprocate.

Degree in navigation from Chabot College in Hayward, CA.

general education - Degree in navigation

All this hoopla about navigation seem rather over whelming. Tom has
mentioned sailing only in the bay where you can see where you want to
get to and "navigation" is, in any event,  a sometimes thing in
sailing boats where you can only go where the wind sends you.

And, I might add, Yes, I have crewed on a yacht sailing in the  King's
Cup Regatta. one of the more famous yacht races in the world, and I do
know what I'm talking about. (Unlike Tom)

A sailboat can sail (close hauled) 45 degrees or so away from directly
into the wind, and thus can travel in the exact opposite direction of
the wind by tacking.
