Welcome to Episode 51 of Carpe Diem Sailing. In this video, part 2 of Basic Plotting I take you through plotting a running fix and then confirm the fix with GPS. I demonstrate o a paper chart as well as with an animation. I'm always impressed by how accurate manual navigation can be, which inspires confidence during the inevitable electronic failure.
