    High-profile sextant
    From: James R. Van Zandt
    Date: 2007 Jun 24, 21:11 -0400

    
    The July issue of Wired magazine (with Transformers on the cover)
    features a full-page photo of the Horizon Ultra Sextant by Cassens &
    Plath (page 056, in the "Start" section).  The accompanying paragraph
    says "...real sailors still carry these 25--year-old gizmos...What
    makes the Horizon Ultra stand out are its finishing touches: a
    brass-alloy frame to resist warping, a white enamel coating to deflect
    heat, and a lighted micrometer for judging angles at dawn or dusk."
    
    I don't see it on their web page.  Maybe they will post it there after
    a delay.
