Mindbender

When is the best time to see a simultaneous moon rise and sun set?

 

Send your answers to george@bwsailing.com. A winner will be selected randomly from the correct answers and will win a one-year subscription to the digital version of Blue Water Sailing magazine.

 

Thanks to all readers who sent in answers to last week’s question about distance to the horizon. The winner this week is Alton Frazer, Bellingham, WA who emailed: “It’s a simple formula. Multiply 1.2 times the square root of the height. At 6 feet, that give you a distance to the horizon of very nearly 3 miles (actually 2.9393).”
