While we're on the subject of how to best spend the $1000, I noted with interest that everyone made provision for at least one GPS receiver - I certainly agree. Now how about the following, slightly modified situation? Which would you choose, given only the following two choices for your navigational aspects, with no other options allowed: Either, 1) One GPS receiver OR 2) Sextant, tables and timepiece etc. Assume that this is for an ocean crossing and perhaps for extended cruising afterwards.
