Greetings ! What are the options, if any, regarding using a sextant lacking the manufacturer's non-adjustble error information ? Can these non-adjustable errors be determined by someone else ? Who ? How accurate a fix can be obtained ? Can it be safely used for serious navigation ? Appreciatively, -- Courtney Thomas s/v Mutiny lying Oriental, NC
