TMO merchants are dots

But don't screw up or the target team says "Target speed 112 knots." You should probably disregard that information and take another pair of sightings....

Bow waves are modeled well enough that you can probably reject a "Target speed 24 knots" if the bow wave looks like something closer to 5 knots. Use all your senses to validate target team evaluation and you'll hit a lot more than you miss.

Well yeah, you do have to use your noodle when they give you estimates. If the course they give you would make the targets AOB way off.. you know its wrong.

Also if you're using the TDC dials to the fullest, you know which bearing the target should be on. If when you pop the scope up for another look.. and the target is not there, you know you need to dial it in some more.

Hi gutted
I enjoyed watching your video.
This looked like you were running parallel to the two targets allowing you to use both bow and stern tubes at the same time.
Does this allow you to enter both targets into the TDC at the same time?
