Exercises - Ocean Yacht Navigator

Like New unused Learning for Yacht Navigation.Effective use of astro-sights in yacht navigation depends on practice. As well as increasing this skill at sea, it is strongly advisable to work problems from examples: so this set of exercises helps navigators reach perfection.

The exercises are arranged in groups, each with seven-teen questions. Number one in each group covers the same sort of problem. So does each number two and so on. The navigator can therefore practise on several problems of the same type or on a chapter of seventeen different ones.

For each question, results are shown facsimile, as if written down in an ordinary yacht log book, or on a chart or plotting sheet.

Work on which the exercises are based is explained in Ocean Yacht Navigator also by Kenneth Wilkes.
