An on-board reference for ocean passagemakers containing everything the ocean navigator needs to work out: sight reductions for the sun, the moon, the four navigable planets, the 57 selected stars and Polaris. The book covers the RYA Ocean Yachtmaster syllabus: the use of the sextant; taking sights in heavy weather; planning an ocean voyage; hyperbolic and satellite navigation; and the use of navigational calculators and graded exercises with model answers.
