    Re: No DR position. How can you get an accurate celestial fix?

    I guess I'd pick the best AP I could and take the intersection of the LOP's of each sight, the morning LOP moved along at my course and direction for the day.  Not a great fix, but something.  Then use that as my new AP and reduce it again.  Should be reasonable, if not perfect.  And hope you're hundreds of miles from shoal water.
