Corsair if one has land on sight (i mean you can see land from your binoculars) can we simulate that the navigator would be able to fix your position using the ctrl click?

Well I am not the navigation guru to allow things or not.

I just explained what I was doing, you do it like you feel... Personnally as long as I see land and I know what part of land it is, that's enough to know where I am and give a bearing to the helm crew...

Thanks thats what i thought

What is really troubling me is that when i find a merchant or a destroyer and im forced to leave off course and if its bad weather im not going to have a clue where i am afterwards

That's a real-life problem; in bad weather there is nothing to take a sighting on. Dead reckoning sucks.
