...we can deduct the current Lisbon 9º8' W from the Canaries at 15º24’ W, leaving 6º16’ E, and see that Ptolemy’s calculation of 5º10’ E was not that far off. (However, the Canary Islands cover from longitudes 13°20' W to 18°9' W, leaving plenty room for Ptolemy to be dead on, depending where we measure from.) Thanks to Capt. Peter J. Piaseckyj for this correction
