This course is designed as a more advanced complement to the Marine Society’s Navigation@Sea course and together they aim to take learners to the level required for the Maritime Skills Alliance MSQ Units 11 (Vessel Navigation and Tides) and 41 (Chartwork and Tides).
Learners undertaking Open Awards Level 3 Passage Planning and RYA Coastal Skipper/Yachtmaster will also find the course useful.
The course is written from the perspective of the Officer of the Watch (OOW) and is divided into four sections. Firstly, we take a deep dive into our vessel’s electronic navigation systems. Then we take a further look at passage planning, the use and correction of nautical charts and publications, and finally tidal port and tidal stream calculations.
