The very words Astro navigation are often enough to send a cold shudder trough even the most experienced boater. The funny thing is that although a lot of Astro jargon has an almost mystical ring about it, most of us know the "secrets" on wich the whole science os Astro navigation is based.
RYA Astro Navigation is ideal for anyone new to, or wanting to up-date their Astro skills. It is not a textbook or manual -it is simply a book to enable you to "just get on and do it". The course book for anyone taking a RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Ocean Course.
