<p>Too big? No.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Just to expensive for us to afford, not to mention the extra time required to build. I am very tired of building. I just want to get back on the water. By the time I expect to finish my Narai, I will have consumed 25% of my current life building boats.<br></br></p>

<p>I had no navigation equipment, charts, or compass on my first cruise to the Bahamas on the Tangaroa. It was all in my head, and I made note of wave action, birds, and water color changes to help guide me. I also had no electricity or running water. Of course, that was all in my youth.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Now I am old and I like cold drinks, a flushing toilet, and lights to read by.</p>

<p>Plotting my DR or GPS position on the chart takes less than a minute, so any flat surface works: i.e. galley table, cockpit table, cockpit seat, bunk with a book under the chart, etc. I have always found a chart table/nav room to be a considerable waste of valuable space, especially considering 99% of all important navigation is done from deck by sight while in the presence of a land mass.<br/> <br/> <cite>Penn D said:</cite></p>

<p>I have had five cruising boats in 27 years and never had, nor used a chart table. Twelve other boats that were cruised or delivered and some had chart tables, none of which were used except to pile crap onto.</p>
