That's a good idea there.

I used the Celestial Nav / no sub marker thing for a little while, but the effort to do the calculations and constant dead reckoning was too much work. When I was doing it, my SOP was to make frequent passes by islands and mountains, to supplement by fixes.

I'm sorta thinking about putting together a new method along this line.
