Geocache Description:

Cache is not at the listed location.

I've been sailing all my life and its been my primary hobby until I started geocaching in 2006.  Hopefully, you've had an opportunity to enjoy this sport.  If you have, then this puzzle should be easy for you.  If you haven't, then a google search should help.  Enjoy!

The final is near water so watch your step and be careful with the little ones.


Identify the correct parts of the sailboat in the above illustration. Apply the correct values to the formula to get the final location.

47 qr.stu 122 vw.xyz
q=A+B, r=C+D, s=C+D+E+F, t=F-A, u=A+D-B
v=G, w=H-G, x=H+I, y=I+J, z=K-L-G

For added fun - if you've been sailing, describe in your online log what kind of boat it was.



FTF kudos go to the aptly named Captain Trevos&Crew.
