If you go to davidkbowman.com and select for ´Technical Articles´ (publshed in European Journal of Navigation), you can see how to precompute (sunset and sunrise) fixes by the timesight fashion for longitude and latitude at sea , using H.O.no.208 , other tables , or by direct spherics and gonio calculator .
