What is the difference between an occulting and isophase navigational aid?

Send your answer to cruisingcompass@bwsailing.com. The winner, selected randomly from correct answers, will receive a Blue Water Sailing hat.

Thanks to last week’s winner, Stephen Bourne, for the correct answer to the question:  A nautical phrase used to describe someone who has had too much to drink. Stephen says “The phrase three sheets to the wind comes to mind meaning the vessels sails were out of control. He’s had to much to drink, he’s out of control, he’s three sheets to the wind.’
