Maybe worth mentioning that you can do a few shots and then back caluclate a heigh of eye correction using the GPS position. This is what I did when I used my pocket sextant while on a cruise.
Yeah, simplistic and out of sync with an activity that is menat to determine a position but hey, it got me up and running!
