No, the logbook will show ship length in feet.
If using the scope to estimate speed, I do exactly what NefariousKoel said.
As don1reed pointed out, though, the key word here is 'estimate'. The calculated estimates aren't exact. They are, however, plenty good enough to get the job done.

Didn't have a lot of time last week, but I did check this out. Yep, replacing the mast height definitely breaks the stadimeter.
I'm certain the AR can get added, just not in the same way that I replaced the speed. Right now I'm taking some time to study these files and figure out how all this stuff fits together. Definitely want to add the A/R, plus had a couple more ideas about things for the logbook. Hopefully, there will be some progress soon.
