Whether you are studying navigation as part of an RYA course or just want to know more about the art of navigation, this book is highly recommended.

The RYA has adapted its Dayskipper, Coastal skipper, and Yachtmaster courses to reflect the fact that many sailors and motor boats now regard electronic instruments as their principal means of navigation.

This book gives equal weight to both electronic and traditional methods, through both the means of power and sail.  

Tim Bartlett is one of the country’s leading experts on navigation. Tim learnt to navigate as part of his professional training at Dartmouth Naval College and then since leaving the navy has become the Technical Editor of Motor Boat and Yachting magazine.
