I had to use a mask to go through it, tons of dust!

There's one chapter about offshore navigation. I will do my best to write down the equations and related programs in the next few days. It seems that there's more formulae than programs.

I am not a yachtsman, but I think you will find some of the formulas in the "Inshore Navigation" chapter, under sections "Current Sailing" and "Distance, Time, and Speed", as well as the discussion on vector addition.

The article reference indicates that it was published in the Offshore Yachting magazine which is still being published by the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia. You might want to contact the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia to see is they might know someone who has the program or the contact information for Joe Diamond, the author of the article.
