I have done this in SH 4. Plotting without your sub icon is not too much harder than doing it with the icon, except you must plot your own position and keep careful track of your own course and speed at every minute. Also, any turns you make must be estimated and thus your plot will have more errors than otherwise. This I think is the biggest disadvantage. It is very difficult to estimate the turning radius and turning speed, and this more or less precludes making turns while your are obtaining estimates of speed and course. (Submerged evasion will likely make your plot into speghetti.) If you find later that your plotted location was way off, you can always erase it from your charts, so it really doesn't matter it your initial DR position is accurate or not. |
