    A. Grey (what's your first name fellow navlister?) suggests telescopes with stabiliser.
    I've tried a homemade stabiliser and 4 inch refractor for Jupiter moons / 
    longitude with no success at sea.
    I find it difficult enough on land on a solid tripod, but may have another go with a better stabiliser.
    Should be possible. Would be good to successfully finish a Galileo project started hundreds of years ago!

    Wow! That's interesting! I was actually wondering if it was possible now to 
    use telescope based methods on a ship now cause of all the advanced 
    stabilisation frames from the military just the other day...
