Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 2nd Edition. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Navigation Exercises for Yachtsmen by Lt Cdr Bill Anderson Summary: This was written to help yachtsmen develop traditional coastal navigation skills through realistic chartwork exercises based on Admiralty charts. It was widely used by students preparing for Royal Yachting Association (RYA) navigation courses. The book teaches navigation by having the reader solve progressively more challenging problems, covering: ? Chartwork fundamentals - interpreting nautical charts, symbols, scales, and depths. ? Position fixing - using bearings, transits, compass bearings, and distance off to determine a vessel's position. ? Course plotting - planning courses between waypoints while accounting for hazards. ? Tides and tidal streams - calculating tidal heights, stream direction and rate, and their effects on course made good. ? Course to steer (CTS) - correcting for tidal set and drift to arrive at the intended destination. ? Dead reckoning (DR) and estimated position (EP) - maintaining an estimated position between fixes. ? Compass errors - applying variation and deviation corrections to convert between true, magnetic, and compass bearings. ? Pilotage - entering harbours safely using leading lines, buoyage, depth information, and landmarks. ? Passage planning - combining all of the above into safe coastal voyages. Although written before GPS became commonplace, the book remains valuable because its methods teach the fundamentals of seamanship. Modern RYA training still expects navigators to understand chartwork, tidal calculations, and traditional position-fixing techniques as a backup to electronic navigation.
