How many Redford fans knew he was left eye dominant ? Price tag still on CN book so we probably know where the gift giver bought it. Using a Bic pen for the plot will have a width of 20 NM on a pilot chart. No need to be too precise with the reduction then. Just round to the nearest minute on both the watch and sextant. No need to get fancy with the Nautical Almanac daily pages when determining declination for an LAN (nearest hour is good enough). Forget using the lower limb or even correcting for refraction and dip. Our man should be able to handle it ;-)
