Kevin,
You remark:
"Easy motion in long, low swell. This observation seems to have come up short by about 7 minutes of arc compared to GPS position."
The advancement of the morning Sun line to the LAN confirms your above remarks. I noticed that the speed made good between morning and LAN assumed positions was 24.4 knots which is more than the stated 21 knots. The course made good was 098* vs. the given 102*.
Greg Rudzinski
P.S. keep the observations coming.
