GPS Afloat

by Bill Anderson

The dream of navigators through the ages – always to know exactly where they are and where they are going – has been realised through the Global Positioning System.

This book explains, to the novice or traditional navigator, what the system can and cannot do. You will learn about choosing a set, position fixing, outputs, waypoint navigation, passage making and pilotage. You will also understand how to check your results using traditional navigation, common sense and the Mark 1 Eyeball.
