We referred to the tropics at 23° 24' N&S, becuase it is a direct translation of the 23.4° (2-3-4) that we want to underscore. Technically the Lats are 23.43598 and closer to 23° 26'. We will be more specific in future printings.

DR Lat minutes for workforms should be 29', not 30'. (Just to remove the ambiguity of rounding 30'. In practice it does not matter how you do that for 30.0'.)
The Star #5 DR lat should be 29' as well, not 40'. This is ok elewhere. |

Moon-sun running fix. If you check the DR locations, you will see these sights are actually over land, mountains even. You can just imagine them as being all over water, and just work then as is for practice (their original goal), or convert them to actual land sights using a bubble sextant.
