Hello Sean,
About total suns correction I have a book that has a smal table with the correction.
The correction depends on the Hs. The book advises use minimum Hs of 20°.
Correction based on standard Yacht height of eye = 2 mtr.
From 20° correction +11'
From 25° correction +12'
From 40° correction +13'
Perhaps this states your info about the used correction.
regards
Herman Dekker
