anyone want to guess #2
I'll give you one
1 fathom = 100 fathoms = 10 cables length = 1 nautical mile = 3 nautical miles = 1 knot = 10 chains = 1 statute mile = 1 nautical mile = 60 nautical miles = 1 degree of a great circle of earth (latitude) Ron |

A fathom is six feet.
I dunno what a cable is. If you travel 1 nautical mile in one hour, your speed is 1 knot.

Interesting subject is the Mariana Trench.
And there are some pretty god-awful lookin' critters that live in the abyssal depths of the oceans.

A few years ago ( 10 or so) two guys went down to the bottom of the Mariona trench (36,201 feet) in a sub. As it touched the bottom and it made a distinctive "thud" all they could say was wow.
I would 'NOT' do that. Ron |

Ron,
I don't blame ya. I wouldn't do that either. At that depth you're surrounded by a water pressure of...what?....about 16,000 pounds per square inch. Gulper eel:
