Hello,
I am at present afloat in my boat, in the eastern Atlantic. The forecast is bad. If I sink tonight, and make it into my liferaft, I will time the moment the rising sun lower limb reaches half a sun’s diameter above the horizon.
No have sextant, no have versines. My longitude will be sun GHA plus 90°.
