Given a starting point from dead reckoning (calculations based on speed, time, and direction) or a sextant reading, you would track the boat's direction (with a compass) and speed (with a log) to continue to know the boat's position. Now, however, most mariners use a marine GPS chartplotter to navigate.ome handheld GPS units also are plotters, if they show the position of the boat on a chart. A GPS unit that provides the position only in longitude and latitude is not considered a plotter. For all types of plotters, the general principles are the same: 1  The screen shows a nautical chart.
Tips & Warnings. Small 1-pound meatloaves can be cooked at a lower temperature of 300 F to 325 F, if you prefer, for 10 to 12 minutes longer. This gentler cooking minimizes moisture loss as the meatloaf cooks, yielding a moister and juicier end result.
â¢ Add a cup of grated cheese to the meatloaf mixture before baking, and another 1/2 cup over the top of the loaf during the last 15 minutes of baking. â¢ Add 1/3 cup of vegetable juice, wine, beef broth, or beer to the mixture for added flavor.â¢ Soft bread crumbs make a more tender, juicier loaf than dry crumbs. For individual servings that bake quickly, mound meat mixture into greased muffin tins, which should be done in about 20 minutes. â¢ Meatloaf baked in a standard 4-inch by 4-inch by 8-inch loaf pan is baked at 350 degrees F. for 1 to 1-1/2 hours. â¢ Use about 1/2 cup filler per 1 pound of meat.
