I came across this while browsing the net this morning. It's an old taffrail log. At $600, this antique is too valuable to take to sea, though. In the 1980s you could still buy new taffrail logs, but I'm not sure if they're made anymore. Anyone know? http://www.deutscheoptik.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=213 The same company will sell you a new Russian chronometer in a gimballed case for $3800. http://www.deutscheoptik.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=6&products_id=557 -- I block messages that contain attachments or HTML. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
