What if you drift off course and you find that you haven't been following the set heading?

I’m surprised at all the decision of conversion to true north. I understand the ultimate accuracy argument but we always just use magnetic for everything. Way simpler. Compass reads true, true is on chart and the variation changes so little it does not matter. We only had parallel rulers so after we had made our best guess at the course sailed ( to nearest 5 deg) we would walk that course from the compass rose magnetic ring to the last position we had plotted with DR or confirmed another way. If we felt like getting really fancy we would add the compass deviation but it was never more than 1-1/2 degs so not of much consequence.
Much more important was to add the off set for the tidal current to the course.
Thanks for posting about DR , still an important simple way to navigate.

West is best, so you should add 7degrees

Would you not also compensate for tide and leeway? 6.5Nm is presumably measured via the log, which is distance through the water, but not over the ground.

Tell your kids " put down those cell phones and pickup a ruler and compass." Love these videos. Thank you
