Spend a full day at sea learning how a navigator finds their position using nothing but the Sun, stars, and skill. In this episode of The Celestial Wheel, we walk through a day’s work in navigation—from taking morning sights to calculating the noon position and planning for evening stars.
Whether you’re a student of celestial navigation or simply curious how sailors once crossed oceans before GPS, this step-by-step demonstration will show you what a real day of traditional navigation looks like in practice.
What you’ll learn:
• How to take and reduce sextant sights
• How to use the Nautical Almanac throughout the day
• Plotting a Line of Position (LOP)
• Finding the ship’s daily fix using celestial observations
This is navigation the way it’s meant to be—hands-on, methodical, and deeply satisfying.
