OCSC's "Navigation I" seminar/study hall
Navigation I is the first of three navigation seminars and provides not only a good base of knowledge in preparation for the next two levels, but also everything a sailor needs navigationally to daysail in the US. It is packaged with Seamanship I and the Basic Keelboat ("Learn-to-Sail") course and is offered on weekday evenings or weekend days year round. As with all the Seamanship and Navigation seminars, it is free to all OCSC students and members. It is also available at $25 as a stand-alone course.
Topics covered: - Lateral aids to navigation (buoys, daymarks, lights, etc.)
- Chart symbols
- Reading a chart
- Reading and interpreting tide and current charts
