G'Day Doug and Paddlewise,

Thats a good point Doug', though my sight is good enough for playing in surf -
but your email got me wondering about backup planning for lost prescription
glasses (or failed GPS) on a long crossing. At present I can see the islands
I'm going to and coming from but if the distances were a little longer or in
seafog  then being able to read the GPS would be very desirable.

All the best, PeterO
