At this URL, you have a calculator for DIP OF THE SEA SHORT OF THE HORIZON. Is the same as in Bowditch, Marine Navigation Calculator. http://xanth.ims.plym.ac.uk/users/subject_areas/navigation/tools/calcs/dip.html Andr?s Ruiz e-mail: aruiz@XXX.XXX My Navigation page: http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Runway/3568/index.html Hi - it is table 14 entitled 'Dip Short of the Sea Horizon' on page 676 on the 1995 Bowditch.

Unfortunately I can't seem to find it. Anyone remember which chapter in which it might be found.
