I got that time from "StarCalc" as the SR for assumed position (AP) 54° N, 008° E. That time was also in sync with my Navigator pgm as SR from my posit.

I've GWX and NYGM on my HD and this time I was using GWX which doesn't show the sun very well through the scopes or binocs. When on the bridge the sun shows up too well and very bright where I cannot see it's outline at all...needs sun filters like real sextant.
I'll go through what you posted, sounds interesting but I'm losing my nerves quickly. Today I've tried to navigate from Lorient. Flat sea and even before going NW i was way off. 1-2 hour corrections didn't change anything and it was like 180-181-180°... so I'm pissed because I can do everything precisely and it doesn't matter at all. Damn helmsman. Need to fix him (it).
