For speed calculation I use the 1.94 x ship length / time (seconds) to get the solution, but I remember reading on these forums what the actual figure for 1.94 is - it's something like 1.93##### (about 6 or 7 decimal places).

Does anyone happen to know what the true figure is?

I'm curious to try the exact one as part of my calculations, but I just can't find it!

Cheers all!

Phoenix3000,

It's a straight conversion factor.

Meters per Second * 1.943844 = knots

or in SH3: Length (in meters) / Time (in seconds) * 1.943844 = knots
