Hello All, I just joined the list. I bought my first sextant (David Mark 15) this year and a few books and was looking around for more information on how to adjust my mirrors when I found this mailing list. I've always been fascinated by the idea of celnav (can I say it that way?), and I haven't been disappointed by what little I have learned thus far. I started sailing dinghies this year as the first step in my long-term goal to sail from Japan to San Francisco (my two homes), and though I probably should learn coastal piloting and other things a little more useful in the immediate future, I couldn't help jumping right to the interesting parts. I figure I'll need some advice along the away, so I joined the list. Paul Flint Kawasaki, Japan
