I have shot numerous sextant observations of Venus with 4 x 40 and 6 x 30 scopes during the day, on land. My last effort was a daytime observation of Venus for a meridian passage, I was well under a mile and quite happy with my effort. Jupiter I a challenge during the day but I have shot it just before sunset on a few occasions. Paul w Jackson.
