Not a wasted day - I learned something new - pabrides - 08-13-2018
Within a day or two I will post another CN Challenge with a twist.
I and my captain friend reduced the observation data to come and its good... so you guys should have little problems ... However there is something new (if you dont know already) in the mix. The natural horizon was obstructed but I took the sun shots anyway. I learned about DIP-SHORT - a reasonably accurate method of compensating Hs when you cant see the horizon. This is sooooo cool. I had no idea dip-short even existed.
Read up on it, shipmates... the knowledge might come in handy.
