Why was Worsley unable to determine latitide on the day the Caird departed? Was it because the Sun and horizon were clear for the morning sight but not for as noon sight? Or was it because Cape Belsham obstructed the horizon? Google Earth suggests that Cape Belsham would not have obstructed a noon sight.
