What are people seeing when doing fixes from small sail boats in racing conditions in a good blow? I'm generally happy if I get within 5 miles of GPS. Now make the rhombus with 5 mile wide corridors. Celnav is not for lacing though reef infested waters. That should be done in daylight with "mark 1 eyeball" and GPS if available.
