Four feet of ice on the ocean makes for an irregular horizon standing at sea level. I think that taking my sight from a taller structure may smooth this out. Magnus Sjoquist gave me the idea, and I went to the third story of a building and the horizon is smoother from there. Using an artificial horizon is something that I am saving up purchase.
