For 20 years I kept my Wasque 32 in Lake Tashmoo(not a lake), and would take the kids out for blues and bass in Buzzards Bay, and Nantucket Sound. There was often a guy at the town dock who would ask where we got such nice fish. I pointed to a polished, round head #8 Brass screw in the cockpit combing and said "right there".

As an aside, Loran C, that went the way of the buggy whip in the early part of the century, was a reliable technology, that lacked the weakness of GPS. It was improved upon by eLoran, and that is finally being revisited in the 2018 DHS bill. GPS is easy and simple, but way to easy to disrupt, if not entirely disable.
