A previous message addressed going to Maine. I would like to state
that I have found Maine by DR alone, starting from the tip of Cape
Cod. It was right where I expected it to be.

I think it may still be there this year, when I try again with more
sophisticated gear. :-)
====================================

Back in the 70s, pre-LORAN C, we used to DR from P-town to Maine on a
fairly regular basis. Plus or minus one mile after sailing 100 miles
was fairly typical but maybe we were lucky. That one mile at the
other end can still loom large on a foggy morning at 6:00AM however.
