If you want a "used" instrument you may be able to find a Horizon Ultra on ebay; in fact, I saw one on ebay not long ago but it was only small amount below "new" at celestaire. There are other sextant dealers [Robert White, Navtrak, and landandseacollection] who deal largely in used sextants at ok prices. I think Robert White has a small selection of new sextants. --Scott --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
