Hi Arne,

I think you are wonderfully off topic with your query to this list. I don't
know much about Yeoman Plotters, apart from the fact that I would like to
own one, as they seem to represent a really interesting compromise between
fully electronic charting and a hands on, pencil and ruler charting on paper
charts! But I do know enough about them to say that I don't think you can
reference a chart to a rectangular grid system with only two points , three
or more are called for...I think. Mathematics tells me so??

You may get a better response in the newsgroups rec.boats.electronics , or
rec.boats.cruising
