I'm using celestial navigation (using Vanjast's "No sub on map" part of his mod) by noon sight and 3 star fixes. Most of the time without doing the sight reduction by myself. I use the php program found here:

http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/celnavtable.php

to do the number crunching for sight reductions. Mainly because it takes me half an hour to do it myself and I actually grounded my boat once while doing so

.

I like the uncertainty involved and the thrill of intercepting a radio contact from a dead reckoned position.

btw: Does anyone know how I can change my avatar back to Popeye?
