I agree. Temperature measurements are the hardest of all measurements to calibrate and to get accurately, especially over long time periods. Unlike the standard meter or volt. etc, there is not a set standard for temperature you can keep on a facility to use as a reference.

Inside a boat and immediately out side of it ... two different mediums, water & air the temperature measurement could be difficult to correlate from one time to another. Lots of things could dinker with the measurement, humidity, sun, breathing on the mercury bulb... lots.
