GREAT scott! Pisces and tomoose, you are GODS amongst men! It gives me honor to serve alongside such fantastic skippers

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! That image right there, BEAUTIFUL. That's exactly how I learned to do it, THAT is the intercepting I know and love. And there's more guides about this? GREAT! Holy bejeezus I think this is gonna be a lot easier than I thought haha! Thank you so much you guys, this is really great. I'm downloading the guides and reading through em and I'll be setting myself up for a crash course in intercepting and eliminating VERY soon.

*One last thing. I seem to remember that there's some small differences when using the Imperial system compared to metric. But overall, when plotting for intercept, if the target is going say 7knots, you would plot a circle that is 7nm in diameter, correct? And then I know there's the speed plotting issue, but I think I'll figure that out in a bit here.

Thanks again sirs!
