When navigating on the water, you are faced with the basics: you need to know your location and how to safely reach your destination. Mastering these requires map reading skills, determining coordinates, mastering nautical and map symbols, understanding the working principle of a compass, and realizing the relationship between speed, distance, and time.
The revised 15th edition of the Archipelago Navigation book also covers the safe use of electronic navigation and communication devices, as well as the new Water Traffic Act (2021). Extensive illustrations, practice exercises. Hardcover, 273 pages.
