Starting out; I read quite a few books, or in all honesty, browsed through them while hoping that useful stuff would jump off the pages and adhere as if by magic (didn't work) before biting the bullet and enrolling in dedicated classes. That worked out very well. Now I can almost understand random articles like that of Mr Buckley Junior. God help anyone who puts to sea with this article as their navigational backbone, but that is not a criticism of it. As I tried to get across earlier, it could have encouraged further interest, and what it proposes is quite valid and do-able. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to NavList@fer3.com To , send email to NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
