This is a 4-hour "hands
on" course for YOU and your mate, dockside onboard your vessel.
Plot your course
to boating success!
This course is especially
designed to help you confidently navigate your boat, from here to there
(and back). Together you and your First Mate will learn to plot a course
from "A" to "B." You'll also learn to read your boats present position-
latitude and longitude - displayed by your GPS or Loran C and to plot that
position on your chart. This will enable you to determine your present position-
at all times-and the current range and bearing to your destination / way
point.
