Narrative:
Although latitude/lon's of all waypoints were checked and doublechked several times, hobee intersection waypoint had gone from 29 degrees 13.3'n to 20 degrees 13.3'n, and the en route controller reported us 60 mi east of course. In the future I shall confirm each waypoint when the track change alert occurs.
