Hi Dale, DGPS is still the most accurate way to go. It's what GPS survey instruments use. and they claim accuracy to a 1/10 of a millimeter if I remember correctly. But there's still plenty of things to cause inaccuracy. I played last night and my estimated position error was 16.4 feet I think I'll be able to see the dock even in the thickest fog. I love it!
