INS Alignment at Sea

Old Girls??
Try doing a "must make it" approach into one of our winter wonderland
seismic strips on Melville Island NWT (That's just past Resolute Bay for
those that don't know the North) with 100 + nuthing in snow using an ****ty
DG and a very good set of Eyeballs, or motoring around the Beaufort Sea with
ADFs and a very erractic Omega. Of course this wasn't combat as no one
except the locals were shooting at us when we were in Alaska flying out of
Barrow. (wait a minute isn't that the same thing?) I found a few 30-30 holes
in our Aztec so I guess that applies
Sum of us old Farts really like using the new stuff after those days

EX RCAF with 20+ years in the North where men are men and Polar Bears are
always hungry

the best alignment occurs when the a/c is stationary. Now my question.
How is the INS aligned at sea on a carrier that is moving at 30kts?
