    Dear Jean-Philippe,

    Thanks. It apparently healed. I am back to Kiel and
    planning a short sailing trip to Denmark in two weeks.

    Indeed, it seems like a good sextant for the kind of sailing I do
    (1 or 2 weeks per year with a lot of airplane flying:-)
    mainly because it is cheap and robust, so I will not worry much
    checking it as a luggage. But most of my Cel Nav activity is
    land observations from my home, and for this I would like to have
    a most precise instrument available.

    Alex
